For once I really hate Opera for not even thinking about Symbian S60 platform!

@Sandeep,
* Opera announces the new Opera Mobile 9.7 at CTIA Wireless 2009 – a server-accelerated full Web experience for smartphones and mobile devices… * http://www.opera.com/press/releases/2009/03/26/
* Opera Turbo is a cross-platform solution, available for desktop computers, mobile phones, and other Internet-enabled devices… * http://www.opera.com/business/solutions/turbo/
Nothing in statements is suggesting Opera Turbo is not coming for Symbian S60.
Hmm I believe Opera Turbo is also designed to attack Nokias S60 browser which clearly is not competitive. Thus putting pressure on Nokia to pre-install Opera Mobile with Turbo on future Nokia smartphones. All will benefit from that. Users and Opera of course but also Nokia.

I´m sad that Opera doesnt say anything about Opera Link in Opera Mobile front. I will still need Opera Mini to remember my bookmarks?!

I wonder how long it will take until the copetitors start integrating a feature like that
It’s always good to see Opera keep innovating…

My god, if Opera mobile gets Gears and the desktop version still does not, I will seriously flip out.

I realy love Opera, most especialy the 2.7 mod and 4.2 mini. It has made browsing easy and enjoying with my Nokia N70-1, but the only difficulty is that it does not enable downloading of mobile stuffs like games, mp3’s, wares, e.t.c, it shows java errors meaning that N70 java format isn’t compatable with Opera’s. Kindly release another mod versions which will allow downloading through it. And must have manual settings of the Opera mini network server just as the 2.7, 2.6 and solibay mods has it. Kindly notify users when its available.
Thank you Opera.
