Hi, is there anyway to change the default browser to Opera.
When I click on a link in an email and open in default browser I'd like it to be opera.

Many thanks all,
Nigel.

nope.

Rumours are this will be done automatically in the next firmware, scheduled for april.

Thanks Andy_P,
I was hoping there was a patch or (yes I know its not M$) a regedit type prog like there was for the PocketPC2002.
Guess we'll have to wait & see.

Nigel.

I saw a screen grab whit opera in the main utill-list. Can't remember where I saw it though. But there was a Opera loggo instead of the usual web loggo at the top of the screen.

That is simply changing the shortcut icon from the original browser to opera. I have also done this.
