When we interviewed CEO of Opera we mentioned, that the most important thing (for Windows Mobile users) is that Opera will provide Opera Mobile 9.5 with bundled Flash but he said that their browser supports Flash if it is already installed, but Flash will no be bundled. Since Microsoft is soon releasing desktop-class browser for Windows Mobile, Opera has found new venue for their innovation - widgets: more...Post your comment (free registration is required to post, but if you register you can edit your posts later) [ 1 Comment ]For developers: Microsoft releases Synchronization Services for ADO.NET September 21, 2008; [General] Shortly speaking: With this download, you can also synchronize between a server database and a SQL Compact database on a Windows Mobile 5 or 6 device.

To release this new browser this year would mean that Microsoft should offer it what separate download what is unrealistic knowing how difficult it is to push updates from Microsoft, through manufacturers, through mobile operators, to end users.
