Opera Mini, the GREATEST mobile browser on earth
Believe it or not, I’m posting from a mobile phone… Ever thought this was possible on a Blog without special features for mobile posting? Opera mini is a great software much better than ANY of the so called cell phone browsers. What’s more, it even supports some amount of javascript. I logged in to yahoo mail without any problem, composed a mail using the normal gmail html interface. It’s unbelievable!
Only hitch? Post size is limited by my cellphone ![]()
Is it all tht better than Netfront and Nokia browsers??
Btw,i did hear abt Opera Mini’s proxy server n all creatin probs… Is it true?
I didn’t encounter any problems using Opera mini, except that Orkut didn’t work. This was due to Google using iframes for the login box and so you couldn’t login from there. Apart from that all sites without Ajax working well. The proxy servers of Opera were quite good and the response time was fine. I guess you cannot notice much when the Airtel GPRS connection gives you only about 3 Kbps.
Its better than the Nokia browser IMHO but I don’t know about Netfront.
