Opera 8 and Opera Mini Browser for Mobile Phones

Opera_mobile_browser

Opera Software has introduced Opera Mini™, a J2ME (Java 2 Mobile Edition) Web browser for virtually all mobile phones. Opera Mini enables Web access on more than 700 million low- and mid-tier Java-capable phones around the world, bringing mobile Internet into the mainstream. Opera says that Mobile phones are becoming more data-centric and evolving into what the industry calls "smartphones", while PDAs are becoming commonplace among business people and students. The two categories are converging into a new hybrid, providing powerful computer power and a phone in your shirt pocket.

Equipped with Opera's Small-Screen Rendering™ technology, these small Internet devices can display full HTML-enabled Internet without any horizontal scrolling.

"Mobile Web surfing has until now been limited to more advanced phones that are capable of running a browser," says Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "With Opera Mini™, the phone only has to run a small Java-client and the rest is taken care of by the remotely located Opera Mini server. With Opera Mini™ you don't have to have an advanced phone to surf the Web, which means that most people can use it with their existing phones."
