Since releasing the new Opera Mini 3.0 a little over two weeks ago, the Opera Mini folks have released to minor updates, the latest one is Opera Mini 3.02. If you had trouble connection with Opera Mini 3, you should download the latest version. (Read the changelogs 1 | 2)

I’m still running into trouble with downloading Opera Mini for the Treo phones using the Blazer browser. Over the last week I’ve tried downloading Opera Mini to two different Treo phones, but when I went to www.operamini.com on the Blazer browser, I got the regular Opera Mini homepage that is displayed on the desktop, not the mobile version. Have any of you run into similar problems?

    3.0 on my treo is driving me crazy. No matter how I try, but always get the Opera mini 2.0 installed in different places :(

    How can I tell if I have 3.02 installed? Looking at the “About” section in my MIDlet manager, the version number shows as 3.0.

    If I go into Opera Mini and go to “Select -> Tools -> Help -> About” I see build number “3.0.6540, 20061213.”

    Obviously, this is a build from Dec. 13, but that’s all I know.

About Opera


Q: What is Opera?
A: Opera is one of the most powerful Web browsers around. A Web browser is the program that allows you to view Web pages. Opera is well known for innovation for PC browsers and bringing the full web to mobile phones and devices.

Q: Is Opera free?
A: Absolutely free.

Q: Why should I download a browser? Doesn't my computer already come with one for free?
A: It's about getting more out of the time you spend on the internet. Opera is designed to be much faster than these browsers and gives you powerful features that the default browser lacks. Default browsers like Internet Explorer are also more likely to be subjected to dangerous software such as viruses and spyware.

Q: Will Opera keep me safe from fraudulent websites and malicious hackers?
A: According to Secunia, a respected firm that tracks security in browsers, Opera has the best reputation and track record when it comes to browser security. Keeping our users safe from security vulnerabilities, fraudulent websites, and malicious hackers is a top priority for Opera. Opera is maintained by hundreds of engineers, developers and security experts who are constantly looking to make the browser even safer.

Q: Doesn't Opera copy all of their features from other browsers?
A: Absolutely not. In fact, many of the features that are popular in other browsers today were invented and pioneered by Opera a long time ago. Opera invented the precursor to tabs (in 1994), Page Zoom (1994), was the first browser to block pop-up ads (2000), first to add a Search field in the browser toolbar (2000), Sessions (1996), deleting private data (2000), Mouse Gestures (2000), User JavaScript (2005), BitTorrent support (2005), Widgets (2006), Speed Dial (2007), and much more.

Q: Does Opera support extensions, such as those found in Firefox?
A: Much of the functionality provided through Firefox extensions is already built directly into Opera, so you don't have to download additional extensions in Opera. In addition, Opera is highly customizable and supports all standard plug-ins.

Q: Can I also use Opera on my mobile phone?
A: Yes. And your Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS or almost any connected device and mobile phones. Opera Mobile oftens comes preinstalled from the manufacturers, but if it doesn't you can install Opera Mini which runs on nearly all phones.

Q: This all sounds great, so how do I download Opera?
A: -- Opera on your computer
-- Opera Mini on your phone
-- Opera Mobile on your phone
-- or learn more about Opera at www.opera.com
