Well, the question is whether MicroB on the N800 is really better than Opera on the N800. You should definitely update to the latest firmware, but browser alternatives to keep in mind are Tear and Firefox.

In this case you are using microb. Enter in the URL bar:
about:
and you will see the current version of the browser.
The fastest browseer on my N800 is "tear". You find this browser installation file here:

there is a reasonable choice. I think they are all in extras, or via a quick google search. Two alternatives I have tried are below, but I have always come back to the built in browser, for it's allround performance etc.
Tear - fast, low disk space, but does not support certain password schemes, which ruled it out for accessing my home server.
Firefox - really good browser, quite quick once loaded, and lots of features, but takes up a load of disk space. Has geo-location, and will sync history and bookmarks with firefox on your desktop.
there are others, but the above are the real alternatives to microb (which is what the builtin browser is called.)

Regarding the latest firmware. I just checked at Nokia and it says the latest is OS2008 Feature Upgrade v. 4.2008.36-5. However when I checked my N810 is said the current rev is 5.20008.43.7. How can that be?

Opera 10 for n8x0 has been released. It is fast, real fast. And works very well (except for the fact that there is no flash).
For me the best choice.
