I just did the download and here's my list:
1. Very slow to load.
2. Fonts are VERY small.
3. Won't shut down. Must do soft reset to exit.
My opinion IE still much more user friendly and easier to use. But I'll keep hoping.

Chewed abit my ram but HOLY S*** it's fast!!!!

*Aximsite took 2 seconds* though the text is small...

10x better than before, I like how it hides the ky until you hit a text box too.

OMG are u serious? this is the buggiest version of minimo yet.

first the bugs such as the sip covering the softkeys and the sudden crashing hasn't been resolved. Now theres new bugs such as when u enter a url it opens in a new tab but NEVER loads and when u try to close the tab IT DOESN'T RESPOND same thing when u goto preferences,it goes to a new tab but once again DOES NOT LOAD it also took away my start bar necesitating a soft reset.

As much as I love Firefox (I even contribute code when I am not contributing code to other OS projects), and was wanting to use Minimo...but I have to agree. With my top of the line Axim (full processor speed, plenty o' ram), it runs dog slow.

WOW

I can actually say I haven't had any problems, I figured out how to adjust the text too.

My only gripe is that the initial startup is slow.

Either I'm lucky or it's gonna blow up in my face lol , none of the old problems I had are there, even closing it is ok unlike before.

I wonder why it doesn't work for you guys?

Thanks, I might give the new version a try when I get time. So far, Minimo has been a nice, free alternative to PIE that plays well with pages containing Javascript that PIE can't handle

Dammit:

Only 2 errors

1. It will quit itself without warning (I HATE that, thank god I didn't type a long message or an important email in it.)
2. You can't hold the arrows on the scroll bars (yet you can drag them) :/ you can tap them for movement...

If they're back on the minimo project I would like to give bug reports, this was the smoothest build, for me anyway..

Also encountered these same errors. Compared to v0.016, this version appers to run smoother. I have X51v (ROM A12).

I'm sad that 0.2 (and above now?) is limited to WM5 and newer OSes. Ah well, Opera Mobile for me as well...

At the bottom of the page a build for older OSes is provided.
  1. Be Kind.
  2. Have fun.
