Get yourself over to The Unwired to see a hands-on video with Opera Mobile 9.5, on display at MWC. Arne has scored some of the details we've been waiting for, namely:
- Opera Mobile 9.5 will not be using a proxy server (unlike SkyFire). This is good news.
- It should be available in late Spring
- It's still wicked fast
- It shares the code base with the desktop version of Opera 9
- There will probably be a public Beta
- They haven't decide on a price
Ah, conventions, how you make us revert to bullet points. If you're wondering, the device pictured above is the HTC Cruise.
Man, one of my colleague's is beta testing Skyfire. I've been SO jealous, but I just keep telling myself "You're already with Opera. You're already with Opera."
I have 8.65 now and have enjoyed it. Hopefully 9.5 will render pages as nicely as Skyfire. That "iphone-esque" page view, with the zoom in, is what I want.
