Skyfire is better than the stock browser, too.
Androids is that something Dr Who fought against in the 70's Harry:)
You're almost as funny as The Krankies.Quote:

jesus, we just need a few Star Trek references and we have a bunch of winners
It's the butterfly effect.
If a butterfly flaps it's wings in a tech thread... Would it effect anything, or would anyone care?
Depends on whether you have your wifi switched on I guess.
In any case, the answer would be 'No'.
Do you use SGS every day Harry? Skyfire is crap so is Opera. Dolphin was the next best I used it on a ROM with 2.2 but went back to the stock.Quote:

Is it the Android default or a special Samsung only propriety thing?

I don't base my opinion on "pretty much the consensus" of anyone.Quote:

I hardly every use the Android browser.
And I've tried Miren, Dolphin/HD, Boat, Maxthon and NetFront.
(Oh and I don't use any add ons/plugins).
^ OK Harry so you have limited experience with crappy devices. I base my opinion on my own experience and it happens that the Galaxy S world generally agree with me.
It's a browser Samsung put on the Galaxy S.Quote:

So please don't assume I have "limited experience with crappy devices".
I've actually taken the time to trial out other browsers to find their good and bad points.
And yes, I'm sure the Galaxy S world agrees with you, although it's more likely, with the ignorance you're showing, that you simply agree with what you've read.
Good luck with that.
Not all of us follow the herd.
:rolleyes:
Do Android phones have capability for T9 input for texting? I am wondering if a full qwerty keyboard is any more convenient/faster than T9.
I need a new phone for actually using as a phone and was thinking Galaxy Mini. Just because
Oh and I guess because I am here do they run excel like the old PDA's used to?
Yes you can select predictive text if you want to, but I must admit, I hate it.Quote:

There is an App for using Office documents called ThinkFree Office, which I use all the time.
Swype is the best keyboard. You have to d/l it outside of the Android repositories.
Some phones have it as stock. If yours doesn't, get it.
Don't be such a fuckwit Harry in over a year of use I found the SGS browser to be the best WTF does that got to do with following the herd? Because others say the same?
Ignorance is stating that Opera is a good browser. It's shit. The worst Android browser ever.
The mere fact you'd come out with such bullshit tells me you've never even tried it.Quote:

Skyfire for native flash support and a nice interface.
While I realise you might not agree with my opinion, it's probably best not to try and dispute it unless you actually have something to offer other than "That's shit, and this is great because it says so on the Internet".
Oh, and "I've been using it for a year" (i.e. "I've never used anything else because I don't think I need to") is not a justification for negativity towards other browsers about which you clearly know fuck all. That's the whole beauty of Android, it's an open ecosystem.
That's true.Quote:

Bt18,900 in a shop in Central Airport, Chiang Mai. I wandered around and priced it up and that was the cheapest I could find at the time. The highest was about bt23,500!Quote:
