I have to admit that I am quite disappointed in the final release. The beta was buggy as to be expected but the final release fixes little to nothing. Same problems as others have noted with scrolling. Same issue with that ugly address bar that's bigger than it should be. Same issue I had with oversized back arrow and "lock" flanking both sides of the adress bar. Same problem with Opera forcing cache and cookies in Main Memory and eating a sh*t load of precious space with no way to force Opera to save that garbage to your SD/CF card... just a bunch of annoyances that don't add up to a $24 price tag. Opera 8.6 for mobile can kiss my money goodbye. Sorry, but it's not worth the cash in it's current, full release state, in my eyes.

YES, I AM SURPRIZED WITH SUCH A BUGGY FINAL RELEASE! IM ON X50V WM2003-SE AND DOWNLOADED THE SAME HOPING IT MUST BE GREAT NOW. SORRY, THAT IS WHAT I AM.
(1) LONG PAGES ARE CROUMBLED OR WHAT YOU CALL IT!
(2) ALL GARBAGE OF CACHE DUMPED TO MAIN MEMORY ON MY WM2003-SE
(3) DEVICE AND EATS UP PERFORMANCE OF MY DEVICE.
(4) TAKES TOO LONG TO LOAD A PAGE THAT BETA VERSIONS.
HOPED TO BUY IT ON 1ST JUN 2006 HOPING ALL BUGS MIGHT HAVE BEEN FIXED. NOW I AM HAPPY WITH PIE AND FTXPBROWSER.
I THINK NO SOFTWARE DISPPAOINTS YOU IN FINAL RELEASE AS OPERA MOBILE FOR WM2003-SE HAS DONE, THAT TOO DESPITE KNOWING ALL BUNGS FOR MONTHS DISCUSSED IN VARIOUS FORUMS AND IN OPERA FORUMS. THEY HAVE NOT TESTED IT PROPERLY MAY BE TO COMPLY WITH 1ST JUN DEADLINE!
I agree with most of you guys. Opera just doesn't have the feature set of Netfront. I think the best combination is PIE (with PIEPlus/MultiIE) + Netfront.

NoWire=The kjam is absolutley amazing. Its my primary device now, that is when i am away from my axim. Something told me you would still have gotten an eten, the3 m600 looks like a sweet device indeed.
To this opera thing, i mean, i don't have a problem paying for it, but at that price. I mean, why couldnt they do like those commercials and have it for like 19.99 or sometin..haha. That just seems like a hefty price tag. If in future they ever decided to have a sale of just a price drop, i'll def be on that. For now, i'm using good ol pie with spb plus and cache moved to built in storage and its working well for what i need it for.
I just tried it and didnt find it to be much different from the beta... not too impressed, the only pro i can think of is the loading speed, however it isnt that huge from PIEplus that i want to switch. IMO the features of PIEplus make it way better than opera (I cannot live without my screen dragging, button mapping and various other stuff that opera doesnt have)

I'm sitting here wondering how old I will be before I have a browser for my x51v that is useful? I can't believe they released this as anything other than a beta. It would be a fine beta, but not worth purchasing for me. I at least hope that this meets the needs of some of you folks. I guess I wait for Netfront 3.3 final.
it's not so bad...maybe i'm old fashioned, but i like to support developers by buying great software. for example
back in 1999, i registered and bought winamp - then it became free!
i bought opera for 19.99 back in the day - now it's free!
i purchased konfabulator for 24.99 - now it's free!
i don't regret it one bit...to know that i helped support the development of great software.
i even donated money to both beemer and mikelspikel for the widcomm project - and i'm not even using WM5! hehehe
Buy opera for us and maybe it will become free too!
On another topic, can we still use the beta. I tried it today and it still works fine. Is it going to expire like other betas.
