I don't want to sound harsh, but bringing the engine of Internet Explorer 6 back from 2001 doesn't seem like a good deal to me. It's much better than what we have now, sure, but it pales in comparison with Opera 9.5 (available now on many HTC devices and Sony Xperia).

It doesn't make much sense to me asking developers to download this engine and test their current 2008-2009 code against a 2001 browser and bringing back the problems we had with it.

I don't want to sound bitter, just trying to ring some bells about this fact.

Opera mobile 9.5 beta is good.
The only problem is no selection of portal and landscape view...
Opera mini 4.2 is the best until now!

What do you mean...?
9.5 supports landscape! What is "portal"?

Is there a mobile browser, on any platform, that encompasses every feature of a desktop browser? If it were possible, I'm sure one would have been released by now. I will wait until release before I pass judgement on PIE 6.
