Both have great features (especially compared to the native BBbrowser) but I found Bolt’s FONT harder to read.

I did like the streaming video option on BOLT but found it difficult to work with overall. While watching the video, my bberry (8310) would go to sleep mode after 1 minute like it normally should if I haven’t touched anything after 1 min. I searched for a way to counteract this but no go.

@Paul – none use the SD card as supplemental memory but I did have success downloading some larger files than I was previously able to.

Is the 413 error gone for good? Not sure about that but give Opera or Bolt a shot to test for yourself.

Do either of these browsers utilize the micro SD card supplement system memory? In other words, will I still be doomed to a variant of the dreaded “413: Request Entity Too Large” error?

My preference is Bolt on the 8900 as Opera tends to cut off letters within websites.

I used bolt for a while and liked it, but paypal won’t recognize the IP and automaticly suspends my card and limits my access until I call their cust. Service and restore the account.
