Netfront browser for UIQ phones is now available, free. Check out:

It seems the new version of the browser comes along with many improvements and offers support for Adobe(R) PDF files.

I used to be hung up on NetFront, but I have been proved wrong! Having used both NetFront and Opera extensively for a cople of months, I finallly got rid of NetFront. Opera is the better of the two.

Without doubt, NetFront is a capable browser and deserves commendation, but...

I agree with the above comments. Opera is a far better browser. Netfront is slower, and I think it consumes more resources than Opera too as it slows down my P910i.

Are you using Opera with their "mobile accelerator" i.e the proxy server that speeds stuff up?

It's meant to anyway
