Ic, so excited.

By DjiXas, # 13. June 2007, 16:37:19

Well this is just intolerable! ;D
Shame on you sending these cryptic messages to vulnerable fans.

By Demens, # 13. June 2007, 16:46:31

Soon? Is that hours or days? Gimme!

By theoddbod, # 13. June 2007, 16:46:47

What is that line for which "seperates screen"? :-)

By DjiXas, # 13. June 2007, 17:10:47

Hmmm... Lots of phone boxes. Is Dimension a 3d Opera Mini? Otherwise known as a dedicated phone...

By Furie, # 13. June 2007, 17:17:46

It's in trays with phones in. Forgot to turn images on high.

That's a lot of testing.

By Furie, # 13. June 2007, 17:22:53

I SEE IT! I KNOW IT!

ok i was bluffing

so dimension means blurry display?

By philry4n, # 13. June 2007, 17:53:47

According to the drawings, it will have Tic-Tac-Toe built in.
Either that or people at opera dont have much work to do.

By Demens, # 13. June 2007, 18:28:22

Hm...

Last pic looks like an animation to me, it's drawing...

Will Opera Mini fully support .gif's then?

Ah, it doesn't look like an animation at all now :-)

By DjiXas, # 13. June 2007, 18:41:07

The top-right picture is all the phones that gave their lives for the beta.

By theoddbod, # 13. June 2007, 18:51:34

Is the bottom left photo an 8310?

By Furie, # 13. June 2007, 19:25:55

I don't think so, as in that pic red opera colors are visible and 8310 got grayscale display only...

By DjiXas, # 13. June 2007, 20:07:19

It's a drawing not a phone though isn't it?

By Furie, # 13. June 2007, 20:38:08

Yep.

By DjiXas, # 13. June 2007, 21:47:09

@Furie:
Now Opera Mini even runs on drawings? Now THAT is a new dimension. "Some" firm, should tell "that other" firm, something about porting browsers to new platforms

By Alaseer777, # 14. June 2007, 04:41:46

Soon? About how many seconds are we talking?

Trays with phones in? Does that mean we also get phones with opera mini?

(They always told me to think big

...)

You certainly know how to make people wait...

The Russian Opera Team site announced the beginning of the massive Opera Mini world promo campaign on June, 19th.

http://www.myopera.net/up.php?forum.myopera.net/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=newsuser&Number=34814

Maybe than?

By krusha, # 14. June 2007, 06:51:34

Hm, Google translation:

ANNOUNCEMENT

HI!

Norwegians are preparing a new advertising campaign to promote the Opera. In this regard, they urged all operomanam posted on their web sites dom.stranichkah, blogs, etc. small banner. The campaign will begin on June 19, will be a banner day for me. Who is ready to assist in moving Opera-mini-mail or lichku here, I will send you a banner as soon get it himself.

P.S. The Norwegians idea is to be a massive promotion, such as the world premiere screening on the same day in all countries.

By DjiXas, # 14. June 2007, 08:28:25

So in other words, it's a recruitment drive for Opera affiliates.

By Furie, # 14. June 2007, 08:36:16

"Opera-mini-mail" Now that is a new feature

In Babelfish land they call it "Opera-mini-write":

To all regards! Norwegians prepare new advertising action on advance Opera- mini. In connection with this they propose to all operomanam to place on their sites, dom.stranichkakh, blogakh and so forth small banner. Action will begin on 19 June, banner will be in me the day before. Who is ready soak in advance Opera- mini - write here or into lichku, 4 to you I will send banner, as soon as I will obtain its itself. P.S. On the idea of Norwegians - this must become massirovannyy promoushen, type as world of the premier of film during one day in all countries

Maybe we get the whole Office package in there now

PS: I also wonder what a "operomanam" is. I hope it isn't contagious.

- ØØ -

By NoteMe, # 14. June 2007, 08:39:24

Who is ready to soak in advance Opera Mini write here

Surely they mean if you want to advance Opera Mini's foothold, then write/sign your name here.

Using the other translation as well, it could mean mail us to let us know.

By Furie, # 14. June 2007, 08:42:25

I can place ads, I already do that :-)

I wonder when new affiliate system will be released... It's been "a while", and really would like to see it finished before Mini goes public.

By DjiXas, # 14. June 2007, 09:33:20

Yes, it means: For those to help write to us here or send me a private message

"operomanam" is "to Operamen". The system has just transliterated from Russian.

Yes, Furie is right. It means "Those who want to help promoting Opera Mini sign up here or PM me".

FYI: the banners will be ready on June, 18th.

learn Russian ;-)

By krusha, # 14. June 2007, 09:56:23

Btw, about "the premier of film during one day in all countries"

All = ?

By DjiXas, # 14. June 2007, 09:59:25

Dimension : The Beginning

Coming Soon in cinemas nowhere near you

By philry4n, # 14. June 2007, 10:17:17

So I was right about the 3d glasses then?

By Furie, # 14. June 2007, 13:20:18

thanks for the photos!

By Profesjonalna, # 14. June 2007, 14:16:54

We would like facts, not procrastination !

By fexo, # 14. June 2007, 15:10:32

Btw, I suggest you to change Opera Mini blog url to operamini.com/blog or something, as now when I want to visit this page I type my.

But there are already zillion of such a places visited, so I have to scroll and scroll and scroll...

By DjiXas, # 14. June 2007, 15:21:25

Hello,
The time has come: Opera Mini Dimension is set to release on Tuesday, June 19th. We're excited to share it with everyone who has signed up thus far.
You will be some of the first to see what we've been working so hard to bring you over the past year.
While we can't wait to show what we've developed, what really encourages us is the impact Opera Mini continues to have on people's lives.
Just over a year ago, browsing on your mobile meant either buying a shiny expensive phone or laboring through tedious WAP content. Opera Mini broke the rules and gave people the freedom to get the real Web on their favorite phones. Now, people expect and deserve the same Web, access to their favorite sites, the ability to check email, blog or do whatever they want, wherever they are. That has been our mission at Opera since the beginning - to break down barriers to access. It would not be possible though without the support of our users in helping to spread the word. For that we remain grateful.
Please enjoy the new Dimension coming out in just 5 days, and counting...
Go to Dimension here
Give feedback here
Look forward to see you on operamini.com on Tuesday,
Your Opera Mini team

Opera Mini: making the Web available on nearly every phone since 2006.

JUST GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By DjiXas, # 14. June 2007, 15:27:13

Now i'm confused. Are they skipping the beta?

By theoddbod, # 14. June 2007, 15:49:40

Mine hasn't arrived yet. Damn gmail

By philry4n, # 14. June 2007, 16:05:01

Mine neither (hotmail)

By theoddbod, # 14. June 2007, 16:07:49

Gmail, and I've got it. From the sound of the mail this is the beta being announced.

"You will be some of the first..." is the line that stood out.

Strangely, Kim hasn't been notified about it. Perhaps they're doing a staggered release so they can manage the feedback reports more easily.

By Furie, # 14. June 2007, 16:32:37

even if ti's a staggered release, people ARE going to be distributing it on their own, if opera doesnt

By Unholy_Prophecy, # 14. June 2007, 19:25:52

Woohoo! I got the email. It says it was sent nearly 5 hours ago.
Now, what time next Tuesday do i need to lurk...

By theoddbod, # 14. June 2007, 19:36:53

Gotta love that non snail mail

By Furie, # 14. June 2007, 19:46:12
