Re: Question regarding Opera Mobile

I'm probably missing something obvious, but IE in MightROM seems fine to me. They both seem one-upped by Skyfire, since it can play Flash content like hulu. Should I be able to see Flash content in Opera? Thanks.
Theres supposed to be a flash plugin for Opera, but from what I hear it's not as good as Skyfires. While skyfire can plan content on hulu, it doesn't do it very well either and can sometimes lag very bad. I think people are excited for a new browser because for every browser thats out right now theres always something very wrong with it, making people like me have to switch between different browsers for different purposes. Firefox gives us hope that as an open source platform it'll bring the best worlds from all the browsers and prove to be a all-in-one browser.

Opera right now is the best browser to view full-page websites in VGA. PIE is good for mobile sites, but is really really bad for trying to view a full-site as if it were on a PC. The only downside is that it doesn't have a good flash solution.
