Can't really say which is the better of the two!
T230 >> T610 >> Ngage QD >> N73 >> N85 >> Omnia HD >> And countless other review units

@marlonski: So far, I have only come across Symbian versions of Opera & NetFront. But I believe there are java versions of WebViewer available for java-supported phones.

Just a question. Can an external browser be used on the K700?

I'v tested a couple of java based webviewers and they are all just for very basic webviewin...nothin like symbian ones like opera etc. Apart from the well known webviewer cellhtml was one but its dead now. Another one very much like webviewer is pocketweb whos beta version i tested some time back, i believe its also been launched now.

whizkidd java is not that powerfull as symbian, so webviewer (or any java web browser) is not that good as the symbian's browsers. Java is limited from many points of view..

Another shot in the arm for symbian! I would have really loved if SE had non UIQ symbian phones.

just downloaded and installed webviewer trial version, (going to have a look at pocketweb also) had a quick look at esato and I have to say i was quite impressed. The trial version limits the amount of pages you can view per day so i will I'm going to have a play over the next couple of days.
