Posted on: Friday, 5 May 2006, 21:04 CDT
Opera Software ASA has announced Opera Mobile 8.6, its latest mobile web browser for Symbian Series 60 mobile phones.
The Oslo, Norway-based company said the browser now includes new features to speed up the user interaction through auto-completion of web addresses and passwords, page toggling, and smooth scrolling.
Opera Mobile 8.60 for S60 is designed for the new Symbian 9, S60 3rd Edition phones, featured on handsets such as the Nokia 3250, N91, N80, N71, E60, E61, and E71. It also supports all current Symbian S60 2nd Edition mobile devices.
Users can surf with Opera's Small-Screen Rendering technology, which refits web pages to the width of the mobile screen, or they can select desktop mode to view the page to look like it would on a PC, with the ability to zoom in and out.
Other features include auto-completion for URL entry; password manager for easier logins; improved smooth scrolling; updated user interface with new skin; open and toggle up to four windows, each with separate settings for zoom levels and display options; read and bookmark newsfeeds; and finally the ability to send images as MMS or save to phone gallery.
