web browser for x50 (wm2003)

I'm after a web browser for my x50 pda but i need it to be able to show videos from the justin.tv website.

I've tried netfront 3.3 but it didn't show the videos.

I think the videos are displayed in flash so i'd need a browser that can show flash videos.

Cheers

Gaz.

*EDIT*

I've just noticed i'd installed skyfire on my N96 and this works with justin.tv perfectly. Is there any way of getting it to run on wm2003?

Have you tried Opera? You can download and try it for free. Here's the link:

Opera Mobile - Download

You'll need Version 8.65 to use with WM2003. :)

Let me know how you make out. I've thought about using it myself. I don't surf the WEB too much on my PDA. :)

:(

Flash website are not suppose to work with mobile platforms (Unless it is specifically a mobile flash website, which there are not a lot of). Doesn't matter on the browser (Skyfire, Opera mini/mobile, or PIE), it will not work.

Kcal is right, leave the web surfing duties to the laptop!

install the flash 7 plug-in, it's compatible with wm2003se. It MIGHT be able to play your Flash anims.
