My only problem is a lack of a touchscreen. When I first used an E61, I kept wanting to tap the screen! Personally, I use Opera on my WM5 handset, and have it collapse pages into a single column. The webkit-based browser on my E65 is nice, but I'd rather it squished the pages to fit on the screen than have me scroll around all the time.

Interesting. The N800 is not a bad device, I've been having fun playing with mine for the last couple of weeks. Ah, so it’s not Opera like on the N800. Interesting.

The browser used by the N95 has been around at least 12 months (probably closer to 18 months). I guess 18 months = ages these days :-). However, the point remains that it renders much faster than the Mobile Internet Explorer used on the Windows Mobile Smartphone and Pocket PCs I use and seems to have a more natural and better user interface.
