I keep hearing that, but I haven't encountered it, so I have to assume these comments are mostly hyperbole or involve other factors. IE crashes on me regularly, even the New! Improved! IE7. I get an occasional hiccup with the 770 and N800 browsers, but no outright crashes.

I consider shutting down regularly without any apparent reason an outright crash, but that's probably just me. Opera on the 770 is not nearly as stable as it is on the desktop. I'm still hoping Minimo will eventually become usable enough that I can ditch Opera.
I don't know what IE7 is.

Texrat: it's worrying when a person in your position isn't aware of the instability of one of the key applications.
See, for example: https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=743 - or also the behaviour where Opera suddenly decides that following links is much too much like hard work, and gives up doing anything but highlighting the link when you tap on it.
Hopefully the newer version and more memory on the N800 will have resolved some of these issues, but everytime I use Opera in a rush, I'm always worried it'll crash or just stop working at the most inconvenient moment.
Hence NetSurf.

Second, as I said, I'm personally not experiencing that Opera flakiness. So the question becomes: why not? I'm running the same OS. I'm running many of the same apps. In fact, I tend to install some apps you guys won't see, one in particular that is very alpha and prone to wreaking havoc on the device. So there have to be contributing factors that just aren't present in my configuration. What they are I have no idea at this moment.

I'm guessing one reason I found it stable was whilst I used it for web access daily I almost always used it for the same subset of pages. It was never really used for general surfing.
