I'll be doing a YouTube series on the "Maemo Browser Wars," as soon as I find time from school work (That won't be until sometime late this month, or June, leaving time for Firefox to go 1.1, PR1.2 to arrive, and -devel browsers to improve).

I'll try to use the more stable version if there is more than one (i.e. preference of -testing over -devel)

Browsers I'll be testing:

Core/Ovi:

MicroB - Core
Firefox 1.0.1 - Ovi (Or 1.1, if it's updated by then)

Maemo.org Extras:

Iceweasel via Easy Debian
Epiphany via Easy Debian

Warning: Installing software from the below sources may lead to device instability and/or loss of data, and the need to reflash your device. I will fully outline any major problems in the videos themselves.

Maemo.org Extras-testing:
Midori

Maemo.org Extras-Devel:
Chromium
Macuco
Tear

Other Sources (Other repositories, or .deb manual installations)
Fennec - 1.1 Nightly Build (as of the recording day)
Opera Mobile - Beta 10 (or higher)

If there are any that I missed, (doesn't matter where it came from, as long as it installs and doesn't brick me...), tell me about it.

Also, I need some judging criteria. I have the basic ideas, (Acid tests, etc.), but I want to see what people look for in a browser.
