Great update to the app. I have always hated the one-touch cliking for browsing. This is much improved and actually blows up the text to see before selecting links. Great job!

Fine, fine. I'll try it again.

I just downloaded it for my Pearl and the scrolling is much improved. If you didn't like Bolt before because it was too slow, give this beta another shot. Scrolling is so much smoother, it feels like Opera Mini.

Great updates. Just what I've been looking for

I hated the original version. I couldn't scroll effectively on it. It lagged.

cant get the menu screen to stay up (options) when i hit the menu button it the options flash up at me and then disappear....?????? weird but fast

The scrolling has improved a lot on my 8130. Still don't know if I'll keep it (opera works fine for me) but its a step in the right direction.

Scolling has improved to a better level. Just tested a youtube video and it is great. Better picture.

I might actually use it all the time now.

amazing update

Storm browser still faster and better in general, IMO.

Bricked my storm...again.

im downloading it i never used the original one ill give this one a shot

Its better, but every time I switch from portrait to landscape and vice versa, the entire page reloads. Pretty annoying.

I would like to see a side-by-side comparison of BB, Opera and Bolt that shows me which browser does what and which excels at what features.
I'm pretty much an amateur, and have been please with BB's standard browser.

But, I'm open to insightful information.

anyway to change the size of the font on the favorites page? running Bolt on my STORM

Be nice if it worked with a site that has IIS domain security. Submitted this bug to them a while back. It just keeps asking for username/password. This site requires domain\username and password style login. If I could get that, I'd be very happy!

Great, Great, Great update to this application. Makes my new 8900 so much more better.

I like this better than opera however you can tell it was built to be use with a track ball

Goes pretty fast but I agree with the above saying build to be used with a trackball.

I think this just became the best browser with v0.94

Trying it out now...

I will take another shot at Bolt. Beta 1 was very slow. I had it on .75 and it ran slower than BB browser. Saturday I moved to .113 and it runs faster. Maybe Beta 2 will be better.

I find Bolt frustratingly difficult to use on a Storm. It's dependence on a keyboard does not translate well to the storm virtual keyboard. I think they should put a disclaimer on the site 'THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT PLAY WITH A BB STORM' in big red letters.

The only thing I could find about the Storm on their web site: "Improved BlackBerry Storm home page tab clicking " is that all?????

I love it. Great update. Now the trackball and typing are actually responsive on my 8330. Before it would lag behind and was unbearable.

This browser just isn't made for a touch screen. The pointer/hand operation is just unmanageable. When they make a version for specifically for the Storm, Then I'll try it again.

OMG! What a BIG change. Scrolling page's on my 8800 is now verry smoother and faster than in previous version's. Now im love it Bolt Browser :D Good Job.

the first beta was absolutely horrendous!

load speeds were slow, the split-screen magnifier didnt help much (even when maxed), content-rich pages full of images were VERY laggy to scroll through and it was generally a pain to use (ESPECIALLY the stupid clicking/selecting).

lets hope this beta isn't all hype like its predecessor.

I did not like it on my storm

It is 100% better than the previous beta I tried. Much faster and takes up less resources IMO.
Great work boys!

i was wondering when the new update was coming. cant wait to try it

The scrolling issue made it to difficult to use on my curve.....I am lovin this new beta, images and streaming videos make it a lot better than Opera IMO! THX

The trackball only seems to be allowed to go left and right.... And it isn't going up or down???

hope it works well on a 8330, plan to give it a try

Like others have mentioned it's more frustrating then it's worth.
Either build a storm specific version or focus solely on trackball BB's, because the current storm version is sub par at best.

i usually use opera mini on my sprint curve. wasnt thrilled w/ bolt when i downloaded it and rarely used it over the past few months...opened it today and saw the update...now i say WOW! amazing what an upgrade can do! The scrolling and general slow browsing and navigation made the previous build pretty useless. now it scrolls smooth and opens pages much faster. ironically, crackberry.com takes forever to load, way slower than on opera, but overall much improved and i will definitely be using it more after today. i still dont like that there isnt a "stop" button when i hit a link by accident and it also takes way too long to go "back" to the previous page. i also cant get any videos to play, keeps opening my default browser, looks like its going to load then i get an error saying the format isnt supported. still thumbs up for a promising beta!

im very intrested in this APP but i dont know much about these browser apps does it replace the orginal browser because my bold is in for repair at the minute for software failure i dont want to get this program if its fear of destroying my bold i was quiet annoyed when i downloaded BerryAlerts Which caused my fone to break down.... so if anyone could PM me and let me know :D thanks

I just tried it, and trying to line up that pointer to click on a link is next to impossible. Also, tapping for magnification is nowhere near as easy to use as it is on the native Blackberry browser, nor can you tap to bring up the menu icons (as you can with the native browser). Also, if you can't import your favorites (which, apparently, you can't) it's too much of a hassle to re-enter then all manually). The native browser is actually pretty darn fast if you uncheck the Java box; for now, that's what I'm going back to.
