Opera 10 Beta for Windows Mobile released
Pushing the mobile browser closer to a desktop grade experience is the promise of Opera's latest release, Opera 10 Beta for Windows Mobile.
The Opera Mobile 10 Beta overhauls the look and feel of it's predecessors and is similar in design to the Opera 10 desktop browser as well as the Java based Opera Mini 5 beta. The UI overhaul brings Opera's offering across all of it's platforms in line, as well as providing a great range of features from the desktop platform including Speed Dial, tabbed browsing, a password manager and Opera's server side compression technology, 'Opera Turbo'.
I've had a try of the new browser and it does indeed feel more consistent in style with Opera's Java based offering, no bad thing as Opera Mini has always made excellent use of the available screen real estate.

Some features found in previous releases don't seem to have made it into version 10 yet - we spotted a lack of device rotate support and no support for multitouch zoom on the HTC HD2, but Opera does look set to maintain it's class leading position on the Windows Mobile platform.
The Opera Mobile 10 Beta is available for free download now from the Opera website.

Sushi Cat is one of the cutest Flash games I've ever run across. You play a blue cat with a major talent for eating and, fortunately for you, every level is filled with delicious sushi! The controls are simple: you aim and drop from the top of the screen using the mouse, trying to hit as much sushi as you can on the way down. Eat enough sushi, and you can go on to the next level.
Your score depends on how much sushi you eat, and which bucket the cat lands in when it finally reaches the bottom of the screen. The more ...

it still doesn't support Windows Mobile Smartphones(non-touchscreen) :(
it expects inputs from the touchscreen to accept license agreement and none of the keys work.
Exactly the same problem as with Opera Mini 10.
Last time Opera mobile was released for WinMo Smartphones was 8.65. I'm feeling very neglected :(

I used Opera 8.65 on my non-touchscreen Windows Mobile 5 phone. There was a separate download for non-touchscreens then. Did you download that?
P.S. I still have the WM5 same phone :)

Opera haven't released 9.5, 9.7 or 10 for "Smartphones".

Actually is DOES support non touch screen devices, but the support is very spotty right now. It doesn't work on my Samsung Jack, but it works great on my friends phone ( never cared enough to find out what kind it was).

I absolutely admire the Opera 10 internet browser from Opera Software Inc. I firmly believe the Vikings have finally cracked open a genie out of the bottle.
The Opera 10 internet browsers is so well thought and designed very beautifully so that even a beginner can have a crack at and have so much fun. After all it is a mobile browser design for the well connected mobile community from around the world.
