Mobile survey

There are many who use a mobile phone to surf My Opera and we want to hear what you think of it. We've prepared a survey and we'd like as many as possible to participate[1]. Thanks!

Opera Mini 5 beta

Who knew mobile browsing could be so easy?

By now you've heard the buzz around Opera Mini 5. You may be wondering what the big deal is. Get ready to experience the best and easiest way to get connected on your mobile phone. Your mobile browsing experience on the intertubes will never be the same again! Yes, we know these are large claims, but we can definitely back them up, after you experience Opera Mini 5 we know you will agree. :yes:

The purpose of doing a beta is testing. Opera Mini 5 has been in development for a long time and we feel it's about time to push the product live and let you take it for a spin. We rely heavily on your feedback to polish it for the final release. Please report, read and take action in the forums. :up:

The browser is of course a free download. Simply point your phone to http://m.opera.com/next and download it. For more information we urge you to check out either Choose Opera or http://www.opera.com/mini.

"In our own research, we have learned that the number-one reason people use Opera Mini is because it is easy - easy to use the Web you know."

Should be in your mobile: Opera Mini 4.2

Opera Mini 4.2

Good news, everyone! Today we have released the latest version of Opera Mini 4.2. Since the launch of the beta, speed trials have shown that this version gives more than 30% speed improvements for users in the US, due to addition of a new Opera Mini server park in ther United States.

This release also marks Opera Mini’s official availability on the latest version of the Android mobile platform. Opera Mini is now the first Web browser alternative on Android. A technical preview of Opera Mini was previously released for an earlier version of Android in April 2008. Users of Android-powered mobile phones, such as the T-Mobile G1, can now download a beta version of Opera Mini 4.2 and experience a faster and less costly way to browse the full Internet. :yes:

To celebrate we feel a visual power demonstration is needed. Enjoy our latest video we've made to launch the world's fastest browser for your mobile phone:

A better browser

Opera Mini on the PSP

Sony's PSP is a popular device, used by many to play games, watch videos and maybe even surf the Web. Well, you can now do the latter one using Opera Mini thanks to a forum post in the QuickJump network.

What you will need is:

Feedback from PSP users are that they find the Opera Mini browser much better. It's faster than the embedded microbrowser. Opera Mini also displays JavaScript enabled pages much better. You can even use Web based services (such as Meebo) on it.

Once you have the PSPKVM and Opera Mini files onto your PSP, launch PSPKVM and locate the Opera Mini files. Open them with "O". They will be installed as an application (accessible from your main menu).

The next step is crucial. Do not launch Opera Mini, yet. It will not work. You have to go "Network setup" and make sure you are connected to a network. After that, go to Opera Mini, but first hit "Start". Select preferred device and click on "O". Make sure that J2ME Standard (480x272) is selected. Save your preferences and launch Opera Mini.

Have fun and enjoy your new browser on the PSP. :cool:
