Clicking this link will download the right cab file for your Dash. Be aware, this is a trial though and will probably expire.

Opera Mini is not the same as Opera Mobile.
That link is for Opera Mobile 8.65 beta. It is a full-featured web browser using the same rendering engine of Opera desktop. The free trial expires in October.
Opera Mini is a completely free Java based program that can be downloaded here: http://www.operamini.com
If you need help with either of them, here are the proper support forums:

Aloha,
Version Opera Mini v4.2.13216 - 20081124
Found a working Opera Mini WVGA version for the Touch HD!
http://rapidshare.com/files/181737253/Opera_Mini_Final4.2.cab
New version... Opera Mini v4.2.13337 - 20081205
http://rapidshare.com/files/184240714/Opera_Mini_4.2.13337.cab
The following registry settings control the font sizes for apps running in JBed:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Java Font]
"Size Large"="26"
"Size Medium"="20"
"Size Small"="16"
Still the version i like, fast, clean and small
Have a nice weekend
i'm still annoyed, that firefox isn't available for pda's...
but thx for up
I found the standard 4.2 from mini.opera.com to work o.k. on the Touch HD. What's so special about this one?

Doesn't the HD already come with the Opera browser?

yes
But i like the Opera Mini more... (faster, smarter, feeds support with remote sync etc) this version is with bigger Font Size so it's running ok on a 800x400 screen.
So the Opera browser that comes preinstalled on the HD isn't Opera Mini? It's not Opera Mobile, right? I thought the HD utilizes a full HTML browser...

the opera 9.5 that comes with the hd is opera mobile, a standalone executable program, which is a full html browser. opera mini is a java applet that runs within a java environment, and used to have limitations. maybe newer versions of opera mini have more functionality??

Cool, works well thanks.
Very fast at loading pages, with nice sliding transitions. The rendering's less accurate compared to 'big' Opera though.
Pros / Cons
I use both the browsers, in my view Opera Mini is far superior though, but with faults. Opera Mobile which comes on the HD is good when it works and you have a fast connection (WiFI or strong HSdPA). I believe Opera Mini uses pre rendered pages from Opera so is very fast, yes the transitions are nice. It has speed-links like Opera on your PC and can handle pretty much all pages I've ever tried to load. Opera mobile sometimes messes up pages with forms, for example, using tfl.gov.uk is so fast on opera mini, nearly impossible on opera mobile. File downloads are fine in Opera Mini as it can access the file directories on the HD, the download manager is maybe not as good as on Opera Mobile though, stop-resume etc..
Opera mini doesn't have tabs though.. one page only, a couple of times it can hang, you need to mess around with it so it doesn't ask each time if it is allowed to access the data connection, leave it running in the background and it can struggle to find connection again without restarting Opera Mini. Also you have to load it through JAVA (from a list of other Java programs you might have on your HD, GMAIL etc..) unless anyone knows how to give it it's own direct shortcut?? Also it's not integrated with TF3D like opera mobile.
I use 4.2 direct from Opera, fine but yes the menus are small, but still quite easy to press. Sounds like there is a WVGA version now. Perhaps in the next version (4.3?) this will be the ultimate browser.
I'll carry on with both for now

ummm .. so what dose that mean ..
what is the WVGA and what is the WVGA support ??
<< newbie hehe
Can someone post the information of opera mini installed from this cab ???
Menu > tools > help > about i think...
I got the version 4.2.13337
In fact the WVGA support comes from jbed and not opera mini... i mean this is what i thought.
Ciao
Fred
got version 4.2.13216 here
and it works a treat.
Error message
When launching Opera Mini from Java, I get Error indication on the top bar
This happens when the CAB is installed in either SD card or Storage
What's wrong?
Thanks

I got this one before i think... but 'im quite sure the WVGA support does not come from opera mini but from the version of jbed you got.. you shoudl have the 20081205.5.1 version or soemthing like that. There was a post here for that version, supporting VGA and WVGA in fact.

go to add remove programmes and remove the previous version of OPERA-MINI then install the cab attached on page one of this thread.
it should work nicely then.
re versions :the text size is now spot on. accept no immitations, this is the real internet in your pocket and no mistake. lovely and fast too, loads the times homepage in about 8 seconds compared to opere mobile's 30 seconds.
well handy. it has to be said.
I have seen people talk about the Opera Mobile and the Opera Mini, I loasded the Opera mini I think fromthe opera web site a while back and it was really sluggish at best.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Jeff

opera mini is free but opera mobile u gotta buy or try the free trial.... i use skyfire
i use opera mini for normal browsing and skyfire for flash and if i cant get a site to work on opera mini. i find opera mini real fast
For Excalibur the best option is Opera mini
But here you can find all Opera Mobile versions:

Think 8.65 was the last release of Opera Mobile for SP?
Oh the question best Opera? can't beat having both,
Opera Mini: fast as &*@&, low on data.
Opera Mobile: very similar to PIE but a hell of alot more secure, tabbed browsing
Skyfire: only real plus is flash & lets ask how often do you realy use it for flash, rendering of pages slow, screams beta all the way.
PIE: Delete the shortcut so you never accidentaly yap it
I use:
- Opera Mobile 8.65
- UCWEB probably the best server side browser out there, faster then Opera with way more options and the next build will allow flash so it makes the slow and clumsy skyfire useless.
- Opera Mini is nice but UCWEB while still in Beta works better, has more features and is simply the better choice.
- Skyfire is ok, but way to slow and buggy, its always going to be a beta product
Has anyone tried the new opera mobile 9.7. Does that work with smartphones?
But more specific the Excalibur?
Opera Mobile 9.7 doesn't work with SP, 8.65 is the last version that will work unfortunately.
I do like Opera Mobile but wish they would keep improving the version for SP, they seem to be ignoring us, even if it's just some minor improvements - like hot keys to zoom in and out instead of having to go through a menu.
On a day to day basis I use Opera mini, or if I need access to an Intranet then I use Opera mobile.
Skyfires crashed on me multiple times, opera has done be amazingly well as fasr as browsin as a normal browser and not mobile, but it is good for both. Ive been impressed while using it with social networks.
wow just tried ucweb, while it doesnt display web pages as well as opera mini, the speed is either the same or a bit faster. what impressed by the most is how little it uses ram. only 1 to 2 mb! very impressive. and tabbed windows!
gonna have to try UCWEB!
Looks like opera has finally released the beta of opera 9.7 mobile browser!!
Found on their homepage!!

opera vs skyfire 10
I have both new opera mobile and newskyfire 10.
my thought on the 2,is that skyfire has opera 9.7
beat hands down.with new skyfire,rendering is
a lot faster and new zooming feature is better.also I don't have to worry about getting
flash to work,flash videos play just like on desktop
with no lag.one other thing is that you keep
your speed without having to disable something
to download. I will try and post both cabs and opera widgets
opera vs skyfire v10

rendering looks crap on skyfire imho ... you have to zoom in to not see everything blurry .. and opera definately has the better, more fingerfriendly controls.

best fastest most reliable mobile browser ever tried and far better than 9.5 screen rotation has been real improved and with respect to the battery killer and connection sucker skyfire this 9.7 Opera is the best to have in your pocket
Skyfire is not a web browser, it's a remote desktop client. You're using it to view the page that's being downloaded and rendered on a server. The server then sends you a screenshot of what it has rendered.
Maybe in US you have a skyfire server close and through a high bandwidth link, but outside US it's too slow, you zoom and you see an JPG zoomed for several seconds. Also, the bandwidth it uses is bigger, which can be an issue if you use Internet on the road and not through WiFi / Activesync.
Hello all,
what is the best browser for windows mobile. Opera its fine but not realy the best ?

in my opinion opera mini 4.2 under jbed and mobile 9.5 for all pages that mini can not display properly.
This should probably be a poll. Unless you have a scientific way of measuring "best", all you will get is a bunch of opinions. And everyone has a favorite browser, so with enough replies you will have all the common browsers represented.
The right answer may be "it depends".
I have PIE, Opera and Skyfire, and they all have their advantages.

Opera Mobile 9.5 for everyday use, Skyfire when Opera 9.5 fails to open something and Opera Mini 4.2 when i want low traffic (when roaming for example).
Opera works best for me
Opera Mobile 9.5
And soon Opera Mobile 10
Coming soon!
