Maybe, but the scroll bar/button size issue remains valid IMO.

This is the greatest news for the N800 since... well, ever!

I am absolutely thrilled that Google Docs works and the most useful browser engine now resides in my pocket.


Many thanks to the developers!

It was in the instructions on the web page, wasn't it?

YES, but I clicked the link provided in the index of the ITT website... As far as I can tell, there is no mention to the close/reopen thing over there, is it?

It doesn't seem to understand what .xpi files are.

Now, xpi files are just zipfiles, and it's possible to uncompress them using "unzip". The next problem is what to do with the files. Looking at a PC version of Firefox they seem to go into the "extensions" directory under "browsersync@google.com", but after that I have no idea. I suspect the settings in prefs.js get added by the installer too when it goes through the first-run wizard.

There has to be, because I saw it... maybe in this thread? Heck I forget, but I saw it.
