The fastest web browser yet...
UCWeb!

I've had the Chinese version running for some time... but now have English running. Problem is, it seems to go through a Chinese server and automatically blocks-out certain sites, such as Facebook and any social site. (Mobileread comes through fine.)

Overall, it's quite fast (very much) and has smooth finger-pressure scrolling. If 'blocked sites' could be accessed, it would be best browser of all for Wince.

FOOTNOTE:
Dang! Someone explained why this is so much faster than anything else... it only goes to a Chinese 'proxy server'. It's not really going-out to the entire internet, just to one server where things are stored.

Oh well, it was good while it lasted (my delusion, that is).
