Choose Opera

We're happy to announce our upcoming release: Opera Mobile 9.7 Beta for Windows Mobile touchscreen devices.

The Opera Mobile 9.7 Beta will include many new great features. Read more in the Opera Mobile 9.7 blog.

In action:

Today we launched Opera 9.6 which enhances the performance and flexibility of features many of you already have come to know and love, such as Speed Dial, session restore and mouse gestures (among other things).

To support we've made a brand new video. We believe life is all about choices, so why not choose the best Internet experience for you? Help us spread the word by referring a friend, embedding the video on you Web site or blog and telling your friends to check it out.
