Re: Opera as default browser???
you have to edit these registry keys.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: DEFBROWSER
"0"="Opera Browser"
"1"="\"\\Windows\\OperaL.exe\""


that should do it for you.

I'm getting the same error. Opera was default, but when I installed the newest build, somehow it was set back to PIE.

Thanks!
Do a search for default browser opera mini, there is a cab floating around here or on XDA's website that will set mini as your default browser.
You can start by checking this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=391598

Hope this helps?
