Reply With QuoteThe memory 'leakage' problem of Firefox would be my main concern. A more lightweight open source browser would be a better choice.

You will LOVE this...
People talk of web browsers for 1.50 users, and no one wants to build one from scratch...blah blah...well, in case you haven't noticed (which it appears that most haven't) Mozilla Firefox is open-source. So why not port it to PSP? It would seem that only minor changes would be necessary (WiFi networking, etc.), and everyone would use it. It would be even better if it supported built-in plugins (QuickTime, Flash!) and such.
Besides, Links2 isn't really that great, anyway...

Links2 rocks! I don't know why you think it's not that great.

You have to get used to it. But it is the best browser 1.5's got. So i'm happy. But a Fire fox would be a great browser to port if possible.

That's a good idea. It's a shame that Opera isn't open source.

Firefox will take a large memory footprint (numbers have varied between 50-200mb in general use). It is something about keeping the history of tabs in memory but has always been classed by end users as a memeory 'leakage'. The odd thing is that it has been in the build for a while.
