Default Best alternative browser for android

Not really digging the default android browser interface so what would you the xda-developers community (who know much more about phones than me lol) say is the best replacement browser. I have only tried Opera mobile so far and i think its brilliant but im sure their is something better. fyi Just wanting it for general browsing.

Dolphin Browser and Skyfire are very good alternatives.

Opera mobile is my fav.
Likely since I got used to it on winmo, but I still think it is a good browser.

Note: Mobile, not mini...two different things even though they look similar.

Default uZard, anyone?

I have not received my Defy yet (it is on its way), but I often run uZardWebP on my current WM6.1 phone. It can be found here. Not sure it it will work correctly, since the Defy' screen is 854x480 pixels, and uZard seems to be suitable for up to 800x480 only.

Anyone here to give it a try?

Cheers!

Dolphin HD. I loves me it! I have a ton of bookmarks, and it's the only browser that remembers the last position when I go to the next bookmark after viewing a page. All the other ones go back to the top, and I have to scroll all the way back down the list.
