Opera Mini 2.0
Opera software just announced a new version of it’s Java-based web browser for non-smart phones, Opera Mini 2.0. Opera Mini is different from Opera Mobile because Opera Mini is a browser solution where the full opera browser is running on a remotely located Opera Mini Server rather than on the handset.
New features included content download to the phone, the ability to change the browser’s visual skin, multisearch to allow users to select extra search engines for the homepage, speed dial for bookmarks similar to the phones speed dial, and quick horizontal and vertical panning when browsing backwards or forwards.
To install Opera Mini, you can point your WAP browser to http://mini.opera.com/ and click on Download Opera Mini. You can also install Opera Mini by sending an SMS. Alternatively, you can download the files and upload it to your phone.
A new Opera Mini simulator is available for people to try. The simulator is a live demo of Opera Mini that functions exactly like it would when installed on a handset. This is what this blog looks like on the simulator:
