what mobile browser do you use?


I have a PPC VX6700 and was using IE that came with the pda by default. However, just downloaded Opera Mobile and like it a lot. The tabs are nice and the overall feel is pretty sweet. One thing I can't figure out is if I am able to highlight/copy web content. Anyone use Opera on their pdas here perhaps may be able to tell me how to do it or if it's at all possible?

If not possible, any other suggestions that support tabbed browsing as IE does not? (Minimo is no good in my opinion, not yet anyway)

I recently started using Opera Mini, and I must say - I'm starting to like it. I've never attempted to highlight/copy web content, but I'll attempt to now.

I use Opera on my phone, brilliant little browser! Much better than the built in one.

Yeah, I like Opera as well, much better than IE, but still can't figure out how to highlight and copy text to something like an email or a note for future reference.

I use Opera, it is so much better than IE on a mobile device.

I can highlight and copy with no problem but I currently use Opera on Symbian not WM5.

Weird, you'd think it would have the same capabilities on WM and Symbian.

I tried opera 8.60 and it worked good with highlight. I was using the 8.65 beta version before and that was giving me problems. So, guess I'll be switching to 8.6. Can't go wrong with the tabs.
