seriously, this 1.1.5 update is blazingly fast. faster than opera mobile to be honest. the scrolling/panning around has gotten so much better, rendering is faster, and pressing links is easy unlike in past releases.
i havent setup the flash yet, but im thoroughly pleased with this release.

i just wish the upper start bar was removed for more screen space and the lower bar removed in place of icons for more space as well.. like the pie6.5
once you set it to full screen, it doesnt stay fullscreen after youve gone into settings or bottom bar buttons

agreed on skyfire. the only value add I see with it is flash. Opera mini is better for day to day use. I tried the new iris browser and unfortunately is seems less stable to me than the previous version. It keeps locking up my device. I have used iris for over a year now so maybe has to do with the rom or something. I really respect Iris since they are putting out new releases all the time, just wonder why there seems to be problems with tpro/diamond users which they are aware of but its strange. oh well, will keep an eye on it!
