I was under the impression MicroB was closed source? Hence why no changes have been made to it (like mouse support).

Opera is a nice browser, which I have installed for use when I have a mouse connected, but foreveryday browsing I still prefer MicroB. Opera'a single click zoom feature can be a bit annoying.

I just ditched Firefox in favour of Opera on my desktop, so much better.

once you understand that and know a little bit about web design, microb's zooming becomes much more useful
i may not know the technical aspect but i can tell you what i see and i see that zooming and rendering of page after zooming is better in Opera

A lot of Micro b is closed source so I don't think implementing tabs would be possible. Would love to be corrected though.

i use both browsers. opera primarily for reading and microb for all the other heavy stuff (ebay buy/sell, facebook, internet banking, etc).

microb imho is a very good browser. the only thing missing is good support for text reflow.

...and tabbed browsing, single click zoom which is very handy , keyboard which suprisingly is very good, better way of copy paste

No doubt for heavy stuff and flash sites MicroB is the king.

I find it the king of zoom, and it is the only zoom-gesture I know of that can be operated one-handed with the phone in portrait mode.

single touch zoom in Opera is much better and it zooms to a correct level as per your setting

MicroB is firefox based and just as firefox is supports add-ons MicroB got alot of potential I'm still confused why no one have made anything usefull for it yet.
