for just regular browsing nothing beats Opera Mini5 in my opinion. super fast and multiple tabs.
Ill attach it if you wanna try it out.

Re: what r the diff web browsers for TP2, and which is the best?

IMO opera mini is def the best for regular web browsing
skyfire i believe is the only one with built in flash that can play videos (?)or is atleast considered the best available for clip viewing

i think opera 10 is a mixture of both. not as fast as mini and has flash lite

Opera Mini is the freaken best! IMHO, of course lol. Though I get better "real" speeds when testing IE VS Opera 10, I assume the speed would be the same in Mini if there was not proxy in use.

Re: what r the diff web browsers for TP2, and which is the best?

guess im one of the few that prefer the old fashion IE.. by the time opera loads im already on google typing in the search and hitting enter.

for long term browsing maybe i'd pick opera, but for quick stuff i stick with IE.
