Summary:
With the small raise in number from 8.6 to 8.65 lots of the most wanted features were added in the new beta of Opera Mobile: Flash support, saving of images, grab and scroll, import IE bookmarks, trouble-free install to storage card etc. Some bugs are gone, some minor flaws came (especially with some of the new functionality) but overall the new Opera Mobile 8.65 beta is really good and stable with strong (and unobtrusive) improvements.
Read on for the details or try yourself – the beta should run until 1. June 2007 1. October 2007 (new version with fixed launcher application ("not enough resources" etc.)
If you don't know Opera Mobile at all: it is a fully capable browser based on the Opera Desktop 8.x core and the most powerful Browser for mobile devices – at least until Opera Mobile 9 will be released 😉
