Opera Mobile 9.7 out Monday !? *Edit* Download here!

Not sure if anyone saw this:
9.7 beta known issues
Browser
Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;
Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.
Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.
On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.
Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.
Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.
Widget manager add-on
The Widget manager is an add-on to the browser, so the browser must be installed in order for the widget manager to work.
We recommend disabling Opera Turbo in the browser when using the widget manager.
Rotating widgets does not work properly. Portrait mode should be used when running widgets.
Widgets + Plugins (Flash & Gears) don't work.
Clicking internal links in a widget will launch the browser.
Twitter widget might have login problems on first run. If this happens, just close the Twitter widget (X) and open it again.

Just run the widget program and open whichever widget (mini programs) you want to run.. If you want to download more just click on the + sign at the bottom and download.

lots of hype, its not bad.

It's not storing any login/password data for me. When I exit Opera I'm logged out of all sites and it's not remembering any of the passwords so I have to enter the data and log in each time for every browser session on all sites. Doesn't appear to be saving cookie info either.

Also, it goes to Mobile versions of all sites automatically. What's the point of a desktop quality web browser if it forces me to view mobile versions of sites?

I do like it though, it's crazy fast and smooth.

its starting to grow on me now, people need to goto settings to really use this if your having problems with mobileview ect. i like that ie favs are also available. and i also like that it can be run from sd, big plus for me.

Improved scrolling in the bookmarks is a huge bonus IMO.

The flash support isn't quite there like I was hoping, Skyfrie still holds that title. However with Turbo mode enabled plus the new slick scrolling and slick rotation animation 9.7 is a worthy upgrade for sure!
