* Possible to manage search engines
* Opera remembers page position and zoom state when moving in history
* Column snapping also on touch
* Better memory management
* Fix for mobile view crash
* Start page available from touch menu
* Lots of minor bug fixes
* Clear cache setting
Windows Mobile (only):
* Asks whether to set Opera as default browser on install
* Fix for crash on startup (occurred on some devices due to encoding in bookmarks that were imported)
* Shortcut support
Known issues include:
S60:
* To view Asian languages Web pages you must download the "International version". This includes extra fonts which take approx 3Mb space after installation. See this blog post for more information.
* Only phones with Asian language packs will show Asian characters in the user interface (bookmarks etc)
* Known exceptions: Thai, Hindi (no support for Thai, Hindi glyphs in UI elements regardless of build used)
* Only partial IME (Input Method Editor) support
* Soft keyboard is shown even though hard keyboard is slid out and in use
* Canceling a connection request does not work (dialogue will pop up again indefinitely)
* Crash if you use system edit (platform input method) instead of default on facebook.com (probably also other sites)
* No plug-in support (e.g. Flash)
* You must click connect twice to use Opera Dragonfly
Windows Mobile:
* Non-Touch devices are not supported (Smartphone profile)
* No plug-in support (e.g. Flash)
* Some input method editors “IME” (hard and soft phone keyboards) are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QWERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.
* Many IME's (Input Method Editor) will override the Opera shortcuts
* Certain HTC devices with TouchFLO will force Opera back to portrait mode if visiting home screen when Opera is in landscape.
* On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.
* You must click connect twice to use Opera Dragonfly
