I second that. I don't have a PC at home right now and I can't download anything of the site from my Mogul with the mobile version. It sucks IMO! I like the way it used to be.

Opera Mobile set to desktop works...I think.

Yeah, most of you might as well get Opera Mobile for this stuff, even if you do use Opera Mini.

But this is the reply I got in another thread requesting the samething.

BTW, it is quite possible to change it so Opera Mini is directed to the full site, SprintUsers did it after people requested it.

But from what I gather is that it won't be done because it would effect everyone using Opera Mini.

Why would it be bad if it affects EVERYONE with Opera mini? They would come accross a great looking page, rather than than the, if I may, sucky WAP page which has no/little support for images and downloads and is hard to read. In my opinion, it would work very well in Opera Mini.

I hear whate veryone is saying about Opera Mobile, I think I might get it when version 9 comes out, but regardless, this forum should be loaded in HTML at LEAST for Opera Mini, if not for all browsers - I think PDA technology and PDA browsers are advancing to a point where we can handle a little html on our devices. AGREE?

I totally agree. Besides, there is a mobile view in opera mini . . .

Oh I agree with you 100% The entire point of Opera Mini is that you can view full HTML pages quite easily on a mobile device. I really like how Opera Mini does it. Having Opera Mini direct to the mobile sites defeats the entire purpose of me using it. and I'm willing to bet that everyone who uses Opera Mini would have no problems if it showed the full HTML PPCGeeks site.

Hmm, i posted about this once before

What i dont get is that some websites can identify a mobile browser, but i thought that opera mini loaded up websites on its server then sent them to the phone, so there wouldnt be any identification of mobile browsing

but yeah, the mobile site suks very hard, and i wish the mods would ditch it already
