    I just tried the new beta on a Samsung G810; it works perfectly. While great for quick browsing Opera Mini still lacks certain functions that you allow me to use it as a default mobile browser; i.e. flash support, video and music streaming, etc.. For that kind of stuff I'll use Skyfire.

                    Looks nice, but there is alot to be done. E.g. What happened to page infor../download images ? I would like to open my old saved pages too. Please keep up the good work and the old ideas that made it a hit

                          As it's a java App and most of the work is done on Opera's servers in Norway, Opera Mini is in no way comparable to Safari in functionality.

                          Can you play YouTube clips?

                          Open PDF's, Word or excel files?

                          Use advanced JavaScript such as Internet banking, gmail account set up, Facebook games.

                          I used to use Opera Mini from the first version to 4 the themes disappeared with version 3.

                          As everything is parses through Opera's servers it's good for slower Internet connections.
