Is there a pocket Firefox or have I just made that up?

I don't think there is a PocketPC version of Firefox at the moment, but there is a version of Opera.

Only trouble is it's a beta and only has a 45 day trial period

^ How do you post a link without the tags showing?

Bounce..

Cannot get Opera to install.. Seems others have got it sorted as there are posts on various fora with reviews etc.. Maybe I'm just being thick..

Right.. There is a trick to this. Download the installer, (cab file) straight onto your PPC or into your synchronised files folder on your PC. For some reason it looks like a zip file on lmy laptop but opens and installs ok.

Works a treat..
