Question [Q] desktop vs mobile browser

So, with it's desktop sized resolution, how can we set our browser to display "desktop" pages instead of "mobile" pages?

Type in browser address bar 'about:useragent'

It won't stick after reboot probably, we need a browser tweak for that I think.

The about useragent is short lived...have to do it each time you powerip again.
Samsung is idiotic for not offering desktop options with screens like this.
Best options? ...third party browsers.
Two best (ie:fastest) with desktop options?
#1 boat browser mini FASTer than stock.
#2 Opera Mobile..
both have desktop settings and displays.
Faster than dolphin or Miren.
