Sir, I'm too 1337
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Most Playstation users know this, so I'm bringing this up for the rest of Playstation.

"The PlayStation 3 uses a version of the NetFront browser by Access Co. as its internal web browser. It is the same browser used in the PSP (Sony-branded NetFront 2.81) with the same interface, menus and virtual keyboard. Its user agent string is cloaked, falsely reporting as Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3; 1.00)."

Some people are probably wondering what's the problem with this browser? Well I have an answer to this.

Problem 1: You recieve an error saying "There is not enough memory," with an error code or "Insufficient Memory," with an error
code.

Problem 2: Some sites say "You need to upgrade your flash player." This error usually occurs on sites like metacafe or newgrounds

Problem 3: The zoom function isn't accurate. When users find a game website (addictinggames, newgrounds, fg.biz) that actually work on the PS3 Browser, usually the game screen isn't formatted to fit on the ps3's browser and on your T.V.

Problem 4: Java, Flash, etc. are outdated.

Problem 5: The esential browser is very far behind. The browser is maybe about 3 to 4 years old, this browser hasn't been changed since release, there were minor updates with Flash and Java but they currently drastically outdated and are in need of a dramatic change.

Solution?:
I wanna know the opinion of NGU as a community and what you as NGU members want the browser to be or some adjustments you'd make the browser as a whole. In my opinion Firefox 3 would be the best choice of browser for ps3 because it is the most up-to-date browser on the internet and I feel its the most advanced, fastest, and secure browser out there. So it is probably the most suitable browser for the ps3.
So leave your opinions!
