Opera Updates Mobile Browser with Flash
5 Comments
Opera on Monday released version 8.65 of its Opera Mobile Web browser, the $24 USD shareware product not to be confused with Opera Mini, which is free. The update works with Windows Mobile 5 and 6 on either Pocket PC or Smartphone platforms. Version 8.60 is available for Nokia's S60 based phones.
Opera Mobile 8.65 adds support for Flash 7, but only on Pocket PC devices, along with FlashLite 2.1. The browser also takes a cue from Safari on Apple's iPhone, enabling users of touch-screen Pocket PC devices to scroll by dragging a finger. Other new features include searching via the address bar, copying text and saving images, as well as sending a link via e-mail, SMS or MMS.
