(this is a stupid question,isn't it?)

is there any "database" with working apps? from the firefox marketplace, or tizen etc.

thank you

and what do you mean with opera widgets?

i want a better browser! is there any way to get it ? (like dolphin, opera with meego keyboard..)

Thank you for the feedback

The fee version is, as you said, free. There are no restrictions to it's usage. However, if you like what I'm doing and want to support it, I encourage you to purchase the PRO version. The main benefits of PRO version are that it always gets the latest new features first and that it supports data encryption.

There is currently no database of working apps. I simply don't have enough time to test all the apps out there. If you find an app you would like to use but find it not working, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to make it work in future versions.

Opera widgets are a legacy widget platform based on draft versions of W3C's widget standards. There used to be a community site (widgets.opera.com) where you could download widgets for desktop and mobile devices (using "Opera Widget Manager" application available for S60 and Windows Mobile), but Opera decided to discontinue that their widget platforms. The stupid part about the decision was that they also pulled the plug for widgets.opera.com, which makes finding those widgets quite hard.

I don't really know what to comment on the browser part. I have been thinking about creating a browser based on Hydra core, but then again there are quite many available browsers already.
