[quote="TomJ"]I've used it to settle a pub arguement by pulling up the IMDB.[/quote]

I found www.m-w.com useful for completing crosswords, as has a Thesaurus!

Any other useful Pub Links I Wonder???? (Could start an new topic "Useful Pub Links"😉

[quote="TomJ"]On a serious, tech note, is there a way of telling Opera which author style sheet to use in small screen mode? Does it pick up media=handheld style sheets by default?[/quote]

Yes. The handheld stylesheet will then disable Small-Scren Rendering, regardless of the user setting. Try browsing to http://www.opera.com, then have a look at the source. Same goes for the local startpage in Opera for S60, the helpfiles and http://my.opera.com/customize/panel/handheld.pl.

You can also use Opera 7.10 for Windows to see how it works. Hit SHIFT-F11 (or select view/small-creen) while you are surfing. The site will either be displayed using Opera's Small-Screen Rendering technology or with the authors designated stylesheet if it has the media="handheld" property.

If anyone out there starts playing with this, please post the URL in the my.opera.com forums. We are always looking for good sites to use when we demonstrate the browser.

Opera installed fine on my 7650, no other apps running in background (as far as I'm aware) but when I have java enabled, i often get a Memory Full message, and the page won't download. This doesn't seem to happen if Java isn't enabled.
ANy ideas?
