Anyone using MultiIE or PiePlus? And whatever happened to NetFront? Still seems lost in limbo. Opera is "fine" but is there anything better out there?

pieplus doesnt wan to work for me here, either it the 128dpi or wm6.
opera mini 4 beta2 is really nice, especially when running full screen on the esmertec jbed java vm.(search the general section of the forum). Unfortunately can't login to this and one other forum with it, so it still has issues..But it renders pages so much faster than anything else.
The last netfront 3.4tp is quite good, hopefully it'll be a free upgrade from the last .release.. but 3.5 is promising much more!
on a netfront theme this sounds good

I'm using PiePlus. It works nicely in all three resolutions for me. I like it much more than opera. The only problem is that on some web pages, only Opera is able to display the pages correctly. Therefore, I have both. PIE with PiePLus as the default browser, and if the pages could not be displayed correctly, I go to Opera to see if Opera is able to do it. Sometimes, both browser can't do it, notably those with Java applets. I'm able to do all internet banking with either one of them, depending on the bank.
I once was able to do youtube in PIE, but strangely I no longer am able to do it (can only do the mobile version of youtube now). Opera was never able to do youtube before.
Bottom line, have all of them in your device, and use them according to the website.:)

I admit I'd not tested PiePlus with the latest PK2.0 rom, as you said it worked, I thought I'd give it a go.
So far it's lockedup once, which is much better than before, when I couldn't even open PIE with it.. Running 96dpi.
