Re: Opera Mobile and Opera Mini - both?

To me it's not the 'slowness' that is so frustrating - it is the (un)usability of it. Opera has a mind of its own. Clicking a link may or may not actually go to the link. Portrait or landscape? - I can turn the phone and Opera will take 5-10 seconds to figure out it needs to switch. But then sometimes it just decides to switch on its own. It can't seem to decide whether it wants to be zoomed in or zoomed out - I try to scroll and it decides I'm double tapping - I'm not - then sometimes it refuses to scroll or pan at all. I'll set it to render in 'mobile view' - well sometimes it will and sometimes it won't - on the same page.

I'm hoping either Opera Mini or the newer build of 9.5 will help. Let me tell you - there is no way it can hurt!
