Re: Torch Mobile releases Iris Browser v1.1.2 (commercial release)

Been playing around with this for last hour......my thoughts so far:

1. Seem to do a good job at rendering pages, even some Opera Mobile and Skyfire had issues with
2. Downloads items better than Opera Mobile, for example Rapidshare files
3. Usability is pretty terrible compared to Opera Mobile though. No way to set zoom settings so I am required on every page to go to the menu and click zoom to 100. This gets very annoying. Some sites like espn when zoomed the text required me to scroll left and right.
4. Flash works about the same as Opera Mobile, hardly at all. Most sites say it needs to be updated. Some that work in Opera Mobile do not, for example speedtest
5. Can't click on buttons or link, requires holding down for a sec or 2 for anything to work
6. Able to import all my bookmarks from PIE and Opera Mobile, this was definitely nice!
