I had this happen to me once as well. I just logged in as normal, top box is your email, bottom is your password. Ever since then, everything has been fine.

hmm weird...

I dont think that I like opera:

1-The O icon reminds me of Oprah
2-The browser is alot fast getting to the page but you have to zoom in and its really choppy after that
3-Doesnt make good use of my trackball "cursor"
4-Takes you to a different screen to fill in text boxes and you cant just push enter when your done typing

There are several other little issues that I dont really like about it, Is there another browser similar to the BB browser but better?

Yup, it should be out on the Storm. LOL. But seriously it should be better with OS4.7. Do you have everything checked off in your BB browser options.

The browser isn't for everyone. You can select mobile view from settings and that will eliminate having to zoom. However, that puts the page in basically a column. You may give that a shot and see if you like that look better?

I like the 4.5 BB Browser. I haven't used any other browsers besides OM and the BB Browser.

That tends to happen when you go into something with high expectations. Have you given the mobile view a look in OM?

Im in the middle of checking it out now, not to bad but I dont think I can get over the fact of not being able to just push the enter key when Im done typing and no trackball cursor, also I like to be able to push the "T" key to go to top instantly and the "B" key shortcut as well. I think its the little things like that, that I enjoy about the BB browser. I love how fast the Opera browser is though easily twice as fast! I think I will keep it for special occasions lol

I like Opera Mini, but only because I can get into my blog and edit / create posts easily with it. The BB browser doesn't show my login stuff to make new posts, which kind bummed me out. Still, the price is right. Wish I could find a free xmpp client...
