Just noticed this trick by accident!
Safari on the iPhone normally limits you to 8 windows. This limit is not enforced if you open a url from another app when Safari is not running in the background.
Steps:
1. Open 8 windows.
2. Hold the square button until Safari disappears (10 seconds). This shuts down the Safari [...]
The Nokia n800:
Opera Version “8.5 Internal” Build “2.0.31″
The flash version tester says 7.0.0.
The Nokia 770:
Opera Version “8.02 Internal” Build “1.1.50″
The flash version tester says 6.0.82.
The opera.ini file is largely the same between the two versions, however the n800’s cache settings are much higher.
NOTES:
I changed the user agent spoof - it was originally set to 3 - meaning Opera on the 770 by default pretends to be IE 6.
I’ve been using Opera for several days now and the settings may be quite different from the original opera.ini file. Other than the user agent, though, I haven’t directly [...]
It seems that Google Reader recently changed their UI to show the number of unread items in a feed when you mouse over it in the feed list. That’s great news! Now I can uninstall the greasemonkey script I wrote to fix this myself. Basically, the problem was that if the title [...]
Looks great! I upgraded the version on my phone and it kept my bookmarks (whew!). There doesn’t seem to be a way to import your feeds from an opml file, so that’s a bummer. More details from Arve.
My browser order from Play-Asia arrived today.
The video reviews from Joshua Zimmerman are accurate. I don’t have much to add, so watch his videos for a more complete look. Here are my thoughts:
Pros:
The browser renders as well as you would expect if you have done any browsing on a modern PDA or really modern phone.
Non-Issues:
The [...]
This is fantastic news! Finally the browsers on my home desktop, my work notebook and my eo UMPC can all share the same bookmarks, history, cookies and (gulp) saved passwords, synchronized in REAL TIME! AND this extension will make dual booting a lot less stressful. Download here.
As a bonus nice touch, when you [...]
This is huge news! I saw all the links marked “Web Browser for the DS”, but I didn’t notice that Opera is building it! YES! LionMarine suggests that it might also require a gba cartridge for a RAM upgrade.
I’ve been using Opera Mini for a while now on my Razr v3 and the clock at the bottom has been a real life saver. Sansblog agrees.
I’ve been using an old version on my Razr because Opera ‘region-locked’ Opera mini long ago. Now, they are opening it back up! Maybe they’ll support AJAX, soon, too!
Update: Installed. Looks great!
Background, first: In XP, windows from the same application show up as one item in the task bar. When you click that item, a popup list appears with buttons for each of the app’s windows. These buttons are labelled with the title of the appropriate window.
Feature Request: When a Firefox window is not focused, I’d [...]
… Microsoft should release an IE branded version of Firefox!
OK, it’s pretty cool to have your browsing experience tied to your blog software, online bookmark manager and your photo sharing account. I’ve tested it out a bit and I get it.
Will people want to move to a different Firefox distribution? The answer for me is no. I want the main line [...]
All of the Flock features I’ve encountered so far feel like they could just as easily be extensions to the main-line Firefox distribution.However, it’s pretty clear that the individual features rely on each other being present in a way that would be difficult to manage if you could install only a few of them.
More later.
