It has this cool feature where it shows you the whole content of a website as you see on a desktop and allows you too zoom in and out on any area you choose...try it..its free
FYI -- BB Browser in 4.5 has this as well.

That depends partially on the banking site and partially on your browser settings. I can use both of my banks online sites without any problems.

Are you sure you edited the options for the correct browser? After you choose Browser Configuration at the top there's the selection field for the browser: Blackberry Browser, Internet Browser, Media Net (or whatever your carrier calls the WAP browser). Each has its own settings.

Switching my BB browser's emulation to IE seems to bring the "full" WCBS NEWSRADIO 880 - Homepage - WCBS Newsradio 880 site when I use the BB browser. Setting emulation to Blackberry brings up the mobile version. Changing the emulation for the BB browser does not affect my Internet or WAP browsers...
