a mozilla based issue:

I do like the mozilla browser better than opera. Handles Flash so much better.
Every time I hit down on the dpad though the keyboard comes up. Very annoying!!

I have the same issue Larry - no idea how to fix it but take some comfort in not being alone

Thanks numbermonkey. Glad to hear i'm not alone. That keyboard issue is the reason I can't decide if it's worth staying with the browser. I appreciate the effort put into this port but can this be addressed?

It's a beta, and vkb issues such as this have been logged in bugzilla. It will be addressed in the fullness of time.

This question may be out of context, but I'm curious. I thought mozilla browser for N800 wasn't even out yet. Is it in beta testing? Or fully distributed?

It is available for "Beta" testing. It's actually distributed as a "Development version" since it's not entirely end-user ready and it has bugs and may cause your N800 to burst into flames and burn your house down. If you're willing to accept the risk in return for filing bug reports you're welcome to give it a go.
