if i upgrade the stock opera mobile, will the globe icon in the internet tab open the upgraded version?

Yes. The globe will launch updated version of Opera.

I just upgraded Opera on my Touch Pro and it overwrote the stock one.
I used SKTools's task manager (Processes) and stopped Opera9.exe and OperaPreL.exe and then i installed the latest version of Opera and it installed perfect but it did say it couldnt delete the stock Opera. And in my programs list there was only 1 Opera (which was the upgraded one) and on TF3d the Opera icon there was the upgraded Opera

how did you upgrade? that is, i see that you normally have to pay for opera mobile. it seems that 9.5 is a beta, but i'm going to go out on a limb and guess that it's "free" with the touch pro. Is this some special version specifically for the TP? that is, if i upgrade, will it start asking me for money?

lol no it wont ask you for money. search here or xda's forums for Opera and you should find the newest version for our phones

The issue with two icons in program files under Manila's All Programs listing is that when you upgrade Opera it puts a link under windows/start menu/programs. With the initial installation, there is also a link for Opera under windows/start menu. When Manila builds the All Programs list, it uses both directories; thus showing two links, because there are indeed two. Just delete one of them as they are identical and are only link/shortcut files.

I dont know about you guy's phones but Opera Mobile was in my all programs list before I upgraded and after I upgraded there was still only one and that was the one I upgraded to

if i'm not mistaken, these are just updates that people are stripping from other builds, these aren't exactly official updates?? Is this the truth or not? I did update to 2649 and that installs over the stock opera and there is only 1 program icon.

edit: also I beleive 2649 actually looks better on the pro then 2745
