UCWeb 6.1 beta

Greetings. Has anyone else tried the java version of UCWeb 6.1 beta? I've been using it all day, it's pretty nice. It's alot like opera mini, but not as polished. There's lots of options to customize it, and from what i've seen, i think it's a little faster than opera mini. I included the .jar file which will open and install with java, i'm using esmertec jbed. It worked for me, so if anyone does try it, let me know what you think. I'm liking that you can copy and paste with it, and also open a new tab. Pretty cool. Hope somebody at least tries it. Oh yeah, this is a wm 5/6 touch screen device version. works awesome on my sprint mogul. dschoenike

Your welcome. Im really liking this browser. The only thing i wish it had, was the ability to view pages in desktop view, instead of the mobile rendering. Maybe there is a way to change the view, but i havent figured it out yet. dschoenike

Yeah, its available still. I'm not sure why your getting the download failed error. Did the jar file try to download within java? I've only tried it with esmertec jbed, so i'm not sure it'll work with other java software. It should though, i would think. dschoenike

I downloaded it and actually like it better than Opera Mini. It seems to work OK on the Touch. On the Mogul, the bottom menus don't seem to appear..

I belive there's an option to hide the menu bars. I know at one point i had the "hide menu" box checked accidentally. I musta clicked it while messing around with all the different options. I'm actually liking parts of this browser more than opera mini also. Can't wait to see what the final version is like. dschoenike
