Do you know the difference between Desktop and Mobile, and look at the date. What a wasted thread.

I think that's for the desktop verson, Opera Mobile 9.7 comes out tomorrow.

Yup, that's the desktop version (which is old since Opera 10 desktop beta is now out).
Interesting thing is Opera.com is down right now (including their FTP and IRC servers).

Yeah, I was trying to get to the site, but it was all down. I pinged them, and their response times for a single packet are very large compared to most sites. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this.

ya the site was download so slow and i want it! lol
whats the key fetures to this new one?

wow seriously? that was posted september 10th 08....

When it is released it'll be located here:
ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/

Doubtful, keep in mind that Opera is located in Norway, so if anything they aren't going to be releasing a product at 6 or 7am there time, Opera typically releases products around 8 or 9am eastern time.

That's Opera Mobile 7.60 beta 3, from 2005.
I suppose you could download and install it, but why would you want to go back to an old version like that?

Omg, too funny! I was like wtf, cool! Geez, some peeps will never learn. I swear, there needs to be a sub forum just for threads like this to be moved to. What should we call it?

Looks like it will support a Flash Player

lol what i meant was it has the functionality of opera mini and more. But its a proper ppc app not a java application.
Just seen the opera press release http://www.opera.com/pressreleases/en/2008/02/05/
If you look under the section that says fully loaded:
Web 2.0-enabled, Widget-ready and Flash support turn Opera Mobile 9.5 into a fully loaded browser allowing users to access all their favorite Web sites such as Facebook, MySpace and more. With Opera Mobile 9.5, OEMs and operators will have the capability to include Flash Lite 3, empowering their smartphone users with access to the full Web including the ability to watch videos on YouTube effortlessly.​ So i was wrong first time it does have flash.

This made me crack up! Funniest post in a long time.
I'm glad the OP took it well.
I'd be very surprised if they'd release a beta to us regular customers before 2009/2010... I've completely lost my hope in Opera.
Over a year ago they told us Opera Mobile 9.0 was going to be released SOON
sounds good, does anyone know when it is supposed to be released?
Well, the situation with wm browsers is exactly like the pre-Firefox IE6 era. Please Opera, make a decent browser, release it NOW that its time has come and you will definetly be the Firefox of the WM platform!
Well, it looks it's intended for manufactures and carriers, and not for final user sales...
What has really surprised me is this:
Opera Mobile 9.5 will be available on all major platforms including Symbian, Windows Mobile and Linux, as both a standalone browser and as a SDK.

check out skyfire, (still in private beta tho) http://www.skyfire.com/
Wow... it's looks great. And I thought PIE 6.1 is gonna take over as the main browser.
i presume its not going to be free though... shame.

PIE (even 6.1) is rubbish. It doesnt render the page in desktop mode at all. The formatting is always wrong. The Zoom feature of 6.1 is next to useless.
at the moment the only browser that comes close to the desktop experience is Opera Mini. OM9.5 looks like the right way forward.

Skyfire hasn't started their public private beta testing yet. I signed up for it but to know that they'll be seeing what sites I surf to due to server side rendering, I think I'd take Opera 9.5 over it.
Like it's been said before in this post, Opera 9 was promised how long ago? Hopefully 9.5 comes out before WM6.1 is obsolete.

Huh!? Are you completely sure about that? I thought Opera Mobile 9.5 would be a FULL browser just like Nokias browser and Opera 8.65... Why server side rendering when Opera Mini 4 already does that!
msmobiles is reporting that it is local rendering.

Unlike Opera Mini and unlike Skyfire, Opera Moible 9.5 is a genuine stand-alone Internet browser, that doesn't require any proxy servers.

Help with SKYFIRE

If you don't know what Skyfire is please chek this:
http://www.skyfire.com/product
I have this skyfire beta but i don't live in the US and i'm not registered in their database so i can't try this amazing wannabe browser.
So i ask you if anyone could hack this beta and make it free to use for everyone.
Thank you guys, you are the best!
download skyfire beta here
http://www.savefile.com/files/1490271
Nope. Skyfire is server-side based.
Also, there are a lot of developers on here. Ask them how they'd like it if a CLOSED beta of theirs got cracked in such a manner. Just wait your turn and it'll come to you when they have a more polished product.

the point of this forum is to develop independant software to improve the platform. not wreak the chances of a company trying to do the same. the software is free to use. i'm waiting as well and looking forward to getting my chance, do it the right way mate
How about you sign up and wait for it like everybody else. Relax, just use Opera Mini, it's better.

New Version Of Opera Mobile Today 2008-10-20

I just wandered over to the site to look for the heck of it and check it out!
Last updated: 20.10.2008
http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/
Awesome trying it now, Been running the 2325 build that was from the diamond I think which was pretty sweet as it got rid of that stupid out of memory error. Been running great on my titan thus far. Will try this one see if anything has been improved or changed.
Thanks for the update!
P.S. Mozilla should be coming out very shortly as well!!! Also very excited to see how well that one runs!!
update: Well after using the beta 2 update. I still get the nice out of memory error after browsing the Neverwinter Nights 2 forums with a second tab open as well as other news sites. Never encountered this error with the 2392 build. Oh well. Back to that build until they fix this stupid error.
Can anyone else give their opinion on the new Opera Mobile? I haven't tried it yet. I was curious if it was better than Opera Mini and/or Skyfire.
It still seems too bulky for this device...it's better than IE, but Opera Mini beats in by a long shot. Still no flash either.
I think Opera Mini is by far the best browser ever. Obviously has its limitations... But when it comes to speed, its unbeatable. I can happily surf 4chan and jj.am, as well as any other website.

Clicky click!
Oh okay. I have never used one of the many builds from the diamond. How stable is it?
Which build do you use for the Mogul? That might be just a little helpful to include

Well I use it everyday to surf and read new sites / forums including this one and excluding the load times it takes for opera servers to convert and realign the formats it's quite solid. I also am a mogul user and this is the build I use incase anyone was curious if I was even a fellow mogul user.

fennec browser alpha 1 for winmo released

I have installed the new "fennec-1.0a1.en-US.wince-arm" and using it on my hd
I find it slow but i like the interface i hope its all ironed out by the final release
please guys install it and give me your feedback
cheers
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla....mobile-trunk/fennec-1.0a1.en-US.wince-arm.cab
fennec alpha 2
is alpha 2 only for windows desktop or is it available for winmo?
guys some help here
i'm testing it right now...and i must say a really like it....it's only early version but if it deliver what is promissing it will be big against opera....
now few things....zooming the page...i'm lost as i cannot find a way to do it....any ideas??
If you check in the parent folder of Mozilla's FTP there are nightly builds available. The newest posted version at this moment is here on the 14th May. There are newer 'mobile' titled directories, but 14th May is the most recent to contain a WinCE build.
What is it exactly?? what does it do??

alpha 2 is for nokia
the alpha 2 was for nokia internet tablet i guess i was exited when i heard alpha 2 is released
I my opinion the interface is nice but not very finger freindly at the moment. closing of tabs is a pain with the fingers(you need a stylus)
every thing lags, zooming is horrible , addons are great but don't know how much it will bloat (wonder if hd can handle this bloat)
zooming is the main problem here

any ideea how this can be used?
Like it. It's slow and the GUI takes getting used to - zipping to left to obtain the navigation bar is... well strange. The graphics are well judged, and Images seem brighter? Java applets run nicely without sticking.
One drawback is that it won't flip to landscape, or is that just me?
Something to look forward to.

great new browser could see it doin well as firefox and yep it is quite slow!
buh very fast browsing and acces to bookmarks and good feature of left side tabbing!! looking foward to next stage!

Yes it is, if you go to the opera website then to mobile, you'll see a link which says: "Opera Mobile 9.7 beta is ready to rev up your phone", underneath this, there is a date which that link was posted, 08/06/09 - obviously that date hasn't arrived yet. it not the full version, but it has the Turbo feature in it, which isn't the final version either.

So finally the beta versions is arriving? Can't wait to browse in TURBO speed. Yeah!
That 'turbo" thing looks fishy to me.....
think it's the same tech that opera mini use
where everything goes passed opera's servers which
compress pages so stuff load faster if you are on a
slow connection
but it really slow things down if you're on a fast one
which is why the feature is default turned off in opera 10 beta on pc
So whats the current news on it?

Well, if you head over to the Opera Mobile page (http://www.opera.com/mobile/), they have a news snipette there on the bottom right that it's out, the article is dated today. However, clicking through points to a "No press release at this URL" page. Sounds like it's gonna be out pretty soon later today!
