I see that Opera has finally released an official beta for the mini 5 browser for android. Anyone tried it yet?

I really liked the Opera Mobile. I am not too sure about this mini version though.

Opera mini can't render those Android and iPhone optimized pages with collapsible sections, smooth pull down menus and the suggestions on Googles home page. I think it might be Webkit thing.

Hell even Walmart's mobile site has a version iPhone and Android

I'm all set. Not knocking opera, they saved the web browsing for WinMo and feature phones. I also like having a choice. But people might miss out on how awesome the Android browser is if they use opera. I know it's a beta but all the versions of opera can't do this. Not to mention it takes a few more seconds to load. Opera should innovate and not set browsing back.

I was kind of hoping that we would have Opera Mobile for Android by now.
