October 02, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R.

We have not tested it yet but clearly Opera is extending Windows Mobile version of its browser and it looks like Windows Mobile is one of more important platforms for Opera. Interestingly Opera delivers Internet browser to several platforms, including some game consoles so the version for Windows Mobile benefits from synergy effects clearly...

The new version has been released for both Windows Mobile platforms - with and without touch-screen. While Japanese company Access is still very slow with releasing new versions of their NetFront browser for Windows Mobile, it looks like Opera is number one and the best 3rd party Internet browsr for Windows Mobile!

Information from Opera follows.
