anyone else get annoyed with opera

does anyone else get annoyed with the way opera loads pages? it looks like the page is done loading you zoom in start reading and bam its loading again takes u to the top of the page or bottom. then you have to find where you were on the page. maybe i expect to do things a little too fast. i just find it very annoying.

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

That happens to me sometimes as well however for the most part I have found that Opera kicks PIE's booty with the exception of not being able to handle Flash natively. Have you tried installing the latest beta build from Opera? Perhaps it works better then the stock version given to us TP2 users? Goodluck!

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

I've ditched Opera for Skyfire...well mostly. I still have Opera on the phone...but don't really use it anymore because I find it sluggish and annoyingly unnatural to navigate/zoom. I also think it uses more resources than Skyfire...but have no proof for that one.

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

i do agree that opera kicks the butt of most browsers out there. i havent used the new opera 10 i plan on it. skyfire in my opinion is cool for video playback but is balls slow. and quite frankly looks like crap.

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

Skyfire is ok but needs to add tabs, both need better zooming.

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

Guys give the Opera 10 beta 2 a try. Its way better IMO then the stock opera that comes with our phone. Everything from zooming, to page rendering, and tabed browsing is 10x better. It does still sometimes however do the page loading thing and jump you to the top but is much less then the old version.

Re: anyone else get annoyed with opera

I mostly stick with Opera Mini. I just hate the checkerboard you get with all the other browsers.
