Opera has released a beta of the latest version of their Opera Mobile (not the java Opera Mini) for Symbian S60, and this release is valid for both 3rd and 5th edition devices.
Opera Mobile beta 10 claims to be “faster at rendering pages, zooming, panning and almost everything else you do with a browser. Page downloading is now 50% faster than the previous version of Opera for Symbian/S60 phones.”
In addition, it inlcudes speed dial, tabbed browsing, Opera Turbo, password manager, touch & keypad (for 5th edition devices), adaptive zooming, and AJAX support, among others.
Symbian smartphone users can head over to Opera’s full web site or visit http://m.opera.com/mobile/ on mobile to download Opera Mobile 10 beta right away.

Mr Yomi, when one is overwhelmed, one is sometimes @ a loss for words. You are doing a wonderful job. Timely, accurate information. All the time. Commendable!
Was using Opera Mobile 8.65 on my Nokia 3250 (Symbian 60 Version 3)
I also own a Nokia 5800 (Royagco 60, 5th edition). We have been waiting for long for this version of Opera Mobile that supports this TouchScreen. Shall give it a spin immediately.
Thank you MobilityNigeria!
Thank you Opera !!

This is great news indeed. I hope MTN does not give it the “Mini treatment”.

Meanwhile, do you guys know any browser that is be compatible with China Phones? I have one; I love it and I want to load it with a good browser better than what it comes with.
