I just read a thread that says Maemo 5 can't be loaded on an N810. But I was also reading that Quasar can be loaded on an N810, but I think Quasar is only available for Maemo 5. I've been searching all over for more info, but found very liitle.

Can the new Opera mobile browser be loaded on an N810 with OS2008?

If someone could point this poor lost newbie in the right direction it would be most appreciated.

True.
Maemo 5 needs hardware graphics acceleration for some of its parts to function, and Nokia didn't bother to release an edition without 3D acceleration.

But I was also reading that Quasar can be loaded on an N810, but I think Quasar is only available for Maemo 5.
Backporting an app to work with an earlier version of the OS is much easier than making the entire OS to work with an earlier device.

Yes, it supports OS2008.

2) Yes, Quasar runs great on N810 see here: link
You need to enable the extras-devel repo to install it

3) Yes, Opera Mobile runs on OS2008
