Touch screen Windows Mobile users, may I have your attention please! I’m sure you’ve seen plenty of videos of the web browser on the iPhone and iPod touch and grimaced at the fact that Pocket IE was written by Emo children who have successfully killed themselves and are now residing in the 7th layer of hell, well I have some news for you: Touch Browser 1.0 is out and it will cure all your problems and heartaches!

Watch the video above, if you digg it then check out the developers homepage; fair warning: this is not free and there is no free trial. Am I going to recommend it? I don’t have a Windows Mobile device so I can’t say, but after playing with Opera 9.5 in Spain at the Mobile World Congress I can honestly state that Opera has taken the best of the iPhone, added some actual useful features, and integrated it into the operating system beautifully. Dare I say it, it is even better than the browser on my S60 device!

    I have tried opera many times on my WM phone and I have not been very happy. It freezes a lot and takes way too much memory to run. If this one is like the last, its going to blow.
