I would recommend you getting the Opera Mobile 10 beta which is designed for WINDOWS BASED smartphone.

I am using Samsung Intrepid. I tried the touch phone verision and keyboard version. I recommend the keyboard verison because intrepid has keyboard and it the interface matches the keyboard and softkeys much better.

I wonder why you guys are using the Mini? It is generic and for other types of phones. Opera Mobile is designed specifically for the Windows SP.

I totally love Opera Mobile. WOW I like them better than IE. Also it helps that Opera compresses the data before sending to your phone so it is much faster.

The Intrepid is NOT a smart phone, but yes, it has too many bugs. For example, if you enable full-screen mode on Opera Mini, you won't be able to get back in w/o uninstalling and reinstalling. Yes, I have the lower-case "w" problem w/o using the on-screen keyboard.

Dont use the Opera Mini. Use the Opera MOBILE.

This is why there are alot of bugs, it is because people are using the wrong kind of apps.

Use Opera Mobile and your life will improve. I'm so happy with this browser on my interpid.

But you get bugs dont you? So, hence use opera mobile. I've advised people here 3 times to use the opera mobile. But looks like people like to ignore me.

I am telling you. Mobile gives you all the same features with NONE of the bugs!!!

Check opera website and you will find compability list which intrepid is matched to Opera Mobile.

Trust me. I've been rocking the mobile for months now with ZERO issues. Oh I remember now, Mini was made for a full touchscreen devices while mobile was made for keypad device which intrepid is!

I dont waste my time on forums unless it is as important as this.

I tried Opera Mini, it worked just fine for me, but I still like Mobile better, the only problem I have with Mobile is it takes forever to load, once it's loaded it is fantastic, just wish they would intigrate a video player with it so you can watch YouTube mobile and other such sites on it.
