Image Gallery: Opera Mobile 9.5

Opera Mobile 9.5 was announced back in February 2008, but has yet to appear for download. It is just starting to make its way onto new Windows Mobile devices and the HTC Advantage X7510 (2nd generation) comes with Opera Mobile 9.5 integrated into the ROM. This mobile web browser is outstanding and provides more functionality than the rather revolutionary Apple iPhone browser.
