You could open the file manager, enter a URL instead of a local path, and suddenly it's a web browser. I just thought it was a neat trick back then. It's only in retrospect that I realise how dumb it is.

    Tbh, imo its a good user feature to have. Makes accessing the internet less big and less of a hurdle for people to learn to use the net. Something that welcome/needed then.

    However, from a technical standpoint its utter hell to maintain, keep safe/secure and was at that point a nono haha

    ( i say at that point, because now webviews are bloody everywhere )
