We looked closely at making a browser for MX-5000, but the size of the screen pretty much rules it out. At 480x272, the MX-6000 screen is barely acceptable for a browser without multitouch scaling (the MX-6000 and MX-5000 use resistive screens, so multitouch is out of the question). The MX-5000 screen is 240x320. After including the necessary parts of the UI, there's not enough screen left over to do anything useful. So alas, browser support is one of those benefits to going with the MX-6000 over the MX-5000.

I can certainly understand keeping this as a premium MX-6000 feature, although I do use Opera Mobile on a Windows Mobile phone with 240x320 resolution and no multi-touch, and it is fairly usable... certainly less ideal than a native landscape screen, though.
