Big day at the Opera! We are launching Opera Mobile 11 for Android and Symbian/S60. Download now direct to your device from m.opera.com, or get it in the Android Market.

Heads up to current users: Tap to zoom has been changed from single-click to double-click. You can now click links and activate Flash content in overview mode, without having to zoom in first (yes, that's right, the Android version now supports Flash).

Opera Mobile 11 labs release for Maemo, MeeGo and Windows

In this day of releases, we are also launching "labs" versions of Opera Mobile 11 for Maemo, MeeGo and Windows platforms (that's desktop Windows, as in tablets and other devices with touch screens, not Windows Phone 7).

The product is the same as the version for Android and Symbian also launched today. See the product pages for more information.

"Labs" status means:
  • Less extensive testing and more known issues
  • Less platform integration
  • No guarantee that there will be any further releases for the platform
That said, we humbly believe they are all still big improvements over any other browser alternative for these platforms smile. So if you have one of those devices, head over to labs.opera.com for more information and downloads.
