I find myself using Arora a lot simply because it seems to be compatible and work well on the Pandora, as I've had issues with many of the other web browsers (dialogue boxes that go way off the screen so you have to tab your way to the end and hope you hit ok instead of cancel.) It could definitely use some improvement, but it holds up surprisingly well. The only other browser that I really like is lightweight2, though the interface isn't exactly intuitive starting out. Fennec runs well but its lack of configurability irks me.
As for the Opera Mini question a few pages back- there are 2 different versions of Opera for cell phones, Mini, and Mobile. As I understand it Mini does a better job formatting text for small screens, but does this by farming out much of that processing to external Opera servers which process and stream the data for you, and most people I've talked to don't like it. Opera Mobile is the mobile web browser that I have on my current phone, and I think it's a good compromise between a full fledged and mobile browser, with the ability to scroll the screen like Fennec, but with more configuration options. I guess in a nutshell it's sort of like what Fennec would be if it were more stylus driven.
