    The Blackberry browser isn't really that good or particularly fast so I installed Opera and it's lightining fast in comparison.

    However, anytime I try to open a link from an email my BB keeps using the inbuilt browser. Is there a way to get it to use Opera as the default?

    I don't know how you can change it to automatically use Opera, but if you have Opera installed and you click the BB button when at a link, you can click on "Open in Opera" in the sub menu

    Or you could upgrade to OS6...the BB browser is much better
