Angry Opera Mobile 9.5 "full web experience"
The whole selling point for Opera 9.5 is that you can "experience the full web on your mobile device" so why does almost every page get redirected to the mobile site? This has to be one of the biggest oversights I've ever seen with a new software release.

EDIT: This is on a Sprint Diamond.

LOL....It is because it is reporting exactly what it is, a mobile browser. There are a number of applications and reg hacks that will allow you to have it show as another type of browser.

Very funny thread, as Dave said you'll need to change the user agent.

There's no option available to change it anywhere in the settings for Opera Mobile. If there is a way to change it with a registry edit or a hack, please let us know.

Re: Opera Mobile 9.5 "full web experience"
There is already a thread about this here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=37905

And yes, the diamond's version of Opera does take you to mobile pages. And yes, it sucks! lol

The folks who keep responding that it doesn't do this, or is a simple fix away, must not own a diamond.
