Anyone using Net Front Brower? What version?

I know many of us are still waiting to get into the Skyfire Beta. Well I have read good things about NF. What are you likes and dislikes? Is it worth downloading? Will it uninstall if not wanted? I noticed there is a 3.5v available. Is this the version I should try? Thanks for the advise :) I love my tilt!

Netfront

I'm using NetFront v3.5. I was fairly new to PPCs. I read many people rave about Opera, so I got Opera Mini. It was better than pocket internet explorer. I tried Opera Mobile 8.65 it was good but I didn't think it was worth paying for. When I upgraded my factory ROM, PIE was as fast as Opera Mobile. So I read up on NetFront, Skyfire, Opera Mobile 9.5. I have a version on Opera 9.5(xda) and NetFront v3.5. I know that the Opera I have probably isn't the final version but NetFront kicks the everliving CRAP out of all the Operas so far. It is like the iphone browser but faster. The scrolling and rendering are flawless. It does not have flash support however. But until that one guy who's hording the beta invites for Skyfire blesses us with one, It's the best of the rest.

I've been using NF for a few months now and it's become my default browser. As bennyj said, rendering and scrolling are flawless. It also has several ways to display the page... I suspect most can find one they like. Give it a try - for now, it's free!

I have been using netfront 3.5 for a while now. I tried a lot of different browsers but settled on NF because it works so much better.

Compared to nf 3.3, the newest version for 2003se, opera 8.65 runs much better, due to its lower memory footprint. It also seems to render faster, and is a more usable browser in my opinion.

v3.5

Yes v3.5 is a beta. It's free till the end of the month. The company that makes it is called Access. You should check it because it's better than skyfire(Finally got my invite yesterday after I cracked on them in my earlier post). Skyfire has the flash literally, but Netfront 's way smoother and faster.
