Opera Mobile 10 – Nokia E72

Opera offers two types of web browsers: Opera Mini and Opera Mobile.

Opera Mini designed to support phones with limited CPU and memory who can’t handle web page processing (rendering) locally.

Bye Bye Skyfire – Hello Opera?

Skyfire, the best browser for Nokia E72,  isn’t longer support in most of the countries. The reason for that is the need for Skyfire development team to focous on the new Skyfire 2.0 version. This version  is not supported by Symbian and therefor not supported by Nokia E72.

If you have a lot of patient you can wait for the new Symbain version. It’s not on the first nor second priority list of the development team so I wouldn’t hold my breath for that.

Following list of supported countries after July 1st: United States, U.K., Canada, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Korea and Taiwan.

If your country isn’t listed above you might find Opera as the alternative browser to Skyfire. After playing with Opera 10 few minutes it looks like it’s even better then Skyfire. I’m planning on testing Opera 10 few more days and then write post about it.
