Interesting. Did whoever you talked to at that Willcom shop happen
to provide any additional details about that, or maybe some
explation of how the determination was made that the flakiness
seen on the device was caused by Opera being installed on it?

I strongly recommend to anybody who has a W-ZER03 or any other
Windows Mobile device that they spend some time trying the IE
browser preinstalled on it. Then try Opera Mobile. I have a pretty
good idea about which one you'll decide you like best.

No. You just need to install it from the "Free Download" link here:

And read this tutorial:

(The tutorial's only available in Japanese at this point.)
