Where does the N800 fit into this?

Re: Opera Mini
 

It seems we will be stuck with an old Opera for quite a while if Opera refuses to even acknowledge the presence of its browser on the 770/N800...

Re: Opera Mini
 

scroll down......opera does acknowledge that opera is used on the N800...

now as for them giving a ****....
I don't think they do....

Re: Opera Mini
 

Opera has a new Mini in pre-beta >> http://www.operamini.com/beta/

It also appears they are trying some new things with AJAX >> http://my.opera.com/Think/blog/2006/...ax-mobile-ajax (new for them at least, LoL)...

At this point we can only hope. I'm sure it all depends on the scope of Nokia's relationship with them.

Re: Opera Mini
 

Opera mini needs java phone edition or some such.. which we don't have (yet) on the N800. It runs fine on my Palm Tungsten T3 though.

Re: Opera Mini
 

Oops... :)

Re: Opera Mini
 

how is that new since its dated 2006?

I don't think opera has any control on whether they update the browser or not. Its up to Nokia to request them to update the browser since ultimately Nokia is paying the bill for the upgrade.

Re: Opera Mini
 

I've been thinking why the Opera have to be the default browser? Was it only working browser back then when Nokia made decision to use Opera in tablets? Now it seems like we are stuck with it. It is slow to.get updated browser to tablets and device is behind all the time from new progress in internet use.

Re: Opera Mini
 

And the N800 is sold as an Internet tablet !!

Re: Opera Mini
 

New in that it has yet to be implemented. And as I said, depending on Nokia's relation$hip... Nokia may have had the intention of a one off with no other support. I don't know nor claim to know.

And yes TA, Mini is a J2ME app that has some pretty transparent code and is "tweak-able".

Opera "Mobile" http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/products/ would be the branch that would apply to a device like the N800. They do provide a commercial version for WinMo and Symbian. They could also eventually provide a commercial Maemo version I would think... independent of Nokia and not free of course.
