you can swim with Opera

media=tv

After writing last post here, I looked around the web with rendering mode=5 with my deskotp Opera 9.20 weekly. Then I now see it works/renders pages as media=tv.

How to check your browser's media type = media type test

As CSS2.1 describes, media tv is Intended for television-type devices (low resolution, color, limited-scrollability screens, sound available).

I think developers at Opera use this rendering mode to test Opera on STB or hopefully test Opera for Nintendo Wii. This is just my imagination with no source or grounds.

[Edit] If you use Opera as real MDI, the size of each window shown as in Cascade/Tile is about the size of VGA or SVGA, so media=tv's rendering fits well, I think.
[Edit] If you use Origami PC or some kind of PDA, this rendering fits better.

I love 'magic'Opera Mini Anniversary Strap!
