just go to http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/
i like it because it lets you zoom in and zoom out and flick around the page. but the new IE on the TP does some of that too. it's why you now have to enable Selecting from the context menu before you can copy/paste now. You can double tap to zoom in/out. And (the big deal for me) it plays flash videos IN THE BROWSER!! One thing I hate is that you can't paste URLs into Windows Media Player. And TCPMP only opens files, so in order to get it to work you have to download either the file or a playlist file (asx, m3u) and open it. I'm thinking it'd be a good service to write a webpage that spits out an asx or m3u or pls file based on a URL you paste in!
