Anybody tried the Opera 8.5 for WM5?

Wonder if anybody tried it. IPAQ HQ has posted the link to the cab and the modified opera.dll as well. I have them downloaded and is going to play around with it soon.

Got it working on my JasJar running WM5. Seems OK so far on sites like BBC News but I need to try other websites.

I also have it on my x51v (WM5, duh :P). It is a great browser IMHO. I use Opera Webbrowser for PC too, so seeing the mini-me version is great. I like some features it houses, such the fullscreen feature, multiple windows (unlimited), zooming capabilities and no double pixeling.
It even has skinning support, although i doubt there will be alot of skins.
I recommend this piece of software to everybody.

That's interesting. I tried it on my X51v and it was much slower than PIE.

If you read the forum link, the cab file will not work on wm2003se. i guess we are out of luck for the time being. however, if a BT fix surfaces, it might be time to break out the ole wm5 upgrade CD!
