Opera mini uses server compression too, so probably it will not work. Try UC browser but I am not sure if it's going to work. If it didn't try other browsers. Good luck!

            If there is no text copy paste in messaging,notes etc.,it is useless. All s40 phones had this text copy paste feature in them.Also is there any wap browser than that poor copy of Opera Mini called Nokia Browser? I could send files from my iPhone via WiFi to my Chinese feature-phone with a wap browser. But it will not be possible with Nokia Browser. Someone posted that you can use copy paste feature in UC Browser or opera mini,guys that feature will work in browser only and will not extend to notes and messaging app. This is not android where you can add new facility with an app.

                Great phone for the price. Whenever i play music on my Asha 501 it reminds me of the sound of N73. Camera is better and screen quality is very nice. Battery backup is amazing. The UI is fun to use and it reminds me of MeeGo. The best thing about this phone is that it doesn't lag. I'd say this is a better than those entry level Android phones which lags a lot. This RAM is low but there's no problem with it. It's enough for Asha OS. The default browser is amazing as it compresses 50% of my data. Really a nice and simple phone. Using since two weeks i am very happy with it. Hats off to Nokia and Asha team.

                      Well, altogether it's pretty much like my Prestigio. Dual-sim, complimentary 4GB SD card, not-so-much internal memory, average camera, wi-fi, built-in file manager etc.
                      The biggest difference is Android Gingerbread and battery longevity.
                      On the minor part, I think it's overall okay phone for people without much need to be overly awesome. It's simple enough, powerful enough, handles two sim, has enough of extra memory, sports a variety of socializing options and isn't too expensive.
                      Of course, it cannot be compared to Android but spec-wise there're enough similarities and while I'd go for this phone as well I still like my Prestigio a tiny bit better, mostly because of chokeful more internal memory and Android (which still is better than Asha OS)

                                The specs is not wow, but it's quite interesting. Nokia should added a preloaded document viewer in the upcoming Asha
