Opera is also available for the EPOC operating system (as used by the Psion range).

Additionally, the adverts on the free version are far from annoying. 1) they do not get in the way, 2) you can have some control over the type of adverts you are interested in (in theorey), 3) they make the browser free.

The biggest drawback is that web authors tend to write pages for Internet Explorer and Netscape only - they do not allow for a browser identifying itself as Opera.

I did say some may find (personally I agree wiv you) and Opera allows you set it to identify itself as either MSIE or NS or Opera

I let it identify itself as Opera. Then complain to all the websites that I can't use with it. I cheekily tell them to update their websites.

same here except most of the time I don't bother complaining
