What are the differences between Opera and Webviewer? I've never used or seen these before,but I only know they browse full websites.

I haven't used webviewer but opera yes. Also netfront which i'm using right now. Netfront has some problems opening some sites but opera opens almost all sites. Both are good. But i use netfront for esato. It displays the pages better than opera.

@whizkidd: In direct contrast to your experience, in my case, I found that Netfront handles some sites that both Opera & Internet have been lame on. As such, Netfront is my preferred Web browser.

Aya netfront is good. But when i try to open the esato webpage it opens fine, but click on any link and it reloads the same page. Might be a one off problem though!

Seeing that I do a lot of work online & on the move, & since Netfront lets me into the sites that are vital to my work, I am happy with it.

And i really don't think there's any difference in speeds between the two.

@whizkidd: No significant difference anyway.

Strange. My default browser always gets stuck up and frequently disconnects. But these browsers offer good speeds and never disconnects! Why? They are on the same connection!

@whiz coz its a known fact that of qd is veeeeery slow and pretty much useless...a lot changes by just changin the browser my friend. But nokia got away with this one coz opera n netfront saved their ass 
@rick700 webviewer is a gimmick buddy...not even in the same league with opera etc. Doesnt support java scripts, flash animations etc so is hardly a full web browser. Add to it the fact that java apps arent allowed access to phone memory and hence you cant download anything and we have a stinker  The k7 has lots of cache(300kb unless i'm very mistaken) so its built in browser will also open the same web pages as webviewer unless they use frames. |

I have been using Opera on & off on my p900 for a couple of months now and find it freezes my phone often especially when loading large pages, I've recently started using NetFront & have not had any problems as yet, it's also more more configure-able & upto now seems more stable
