Web Browser

I really like the web browser that comes with android, it fits websites nicely to the page unlike say Opera. But what is with the touch? it's always lagging behind, not like it's slow, but like they enabled some sort of smooth into action setting or something. If you move the page up and down, you'll see it's like it's chasing your finger. Is their a way to make the touch fast and on point with your finger like with Opera?

Can't answer your question as I've been using Dolphin Browser HD. I'd urge ya to try it if you haven't.

Yeah I tried dolphin, it's cool, like it. I kinda like the simplicity of the android browser though, just wish their was a way to fix the touch. If I stick with Dolphin i'll have to figure out how to get it to replace my web button on the bottom bar, I thought with the new gingerbread you was able to replace those buttons.

Go to your Applications drawer, hit the context button (i don't know the real term, the one in bottom left, brings up the sub-menu). It'll give you a warning about changing the 'view type' to customizable grid. Click the 'switch' button. You should be able to drag whatever application you want down into the bottom-four to replace the initial apps. I replaced the default messaging with Chomp.

When you're done, hit that same Context button and hit 'save'.

You'll also probably want to go back into that context menu, hit the 'view type' button and switch it back to Alphabetical grid. It leaves your bottom 4 alone, just re-organizes the main ones.

That 'edit' menu is also a really easy way to uninstall apps.
