This is probably a silly question but I couldn't find the answer to it anywhere.

Is there any way to install a browser other than Opera on the N800? Firefox for example?

There is MiniMo (Firefox is based on Mozilla) but it's not quite there yet in terms of features.

Here's the empty Garage page: https://garage.maemo.org/projects/minimo-maemo/

Here is the website of the guy porting it: http://tonikitoo.blogspot.com/search?q=minimo

Edit:
Ok, I tried to install the package minimo_0.16.8-2 and it depends on libxt6_0.1.5-2 which is incompatible w/ the N800. I haven't really put more than a couple minutes into this so it may work with an upgraded libxt6 that is floating around but a google search doesn't pull up anything worthwhile but I did see reports that it was running on the N800.

Thanks for the link. If it progresses, do you have any idea how many Opera features MiniMo could match? Could it use Flash 7?

should be able to do the same flash that opera can do now. You'd just have to tweak the settings (guessing, but there is no reason it shouldn't work).
