(the version of MicroB engine that I have 0.0.8-3 can't even handle the wsj.com website at all while Opera works like a charm)
Seem to work OK on N800 flashed with the OS2008. However, I can not scroll the screen using stylus, but the scroll bars appear very quickly and page can be scrolled well before it has loaded completely.

I tried the same with my other N800 having the current OS: Opera works as you said: stylus can be used for scrolling. MicroB does work fine for me too? (With the exception of stylus scrolling not working. The scroll bars appear early and can be used to scroll before the page has loaded.)

The new 2008OS feels that it loads the page faster.
