    I cannot wait for a release for my iPad.
  • Si TangMonday, January 3, 2011 5:40:47 PM

    I run Opera on my Motorola XT720. It takes 28 Mb space, and runs not very smoothly. I don't think my 720 Mhz processor is an excuse.
  • Vlad ShumkinMonday, January 3, 2011 5:41:10 PM

    I really like that opera cover bag next to the tablet!
  • KiLEXMonday, January 3, 2011 5:54:44 PM

    Если она такая же кривая как и на айфоне, то ну ее нафиг.

    Looks tasty.
  • netwolfMonday, January 3, 2011 7:36:19 PM

    Looks good, like Opera Mini for iPhone with proper zoom :-)
  • LeoGhostMonday, January 3, 2011 7:53:33 PM

    I run Android on my Archos 28. At first I was using a copy of Opera Mini but it didn't run well with the tiny screen. I ended up switching to Dolphin HD, but at first sight of an Opera released designed for tablet I'm headed straight back :smile:
  • ErikMonday, January 3, 2011 8:37:03 PM

    so good software and no 13 in tablet for me... students may like a notebook/book replacement

    Good for Opera now it'll be known by more people :yes:

  • AuxTuesday, January 4, 2011 8:45:22 AM

    Why mobile version of Opera is always in "preview" mode? Where is our Opera Mobile for Android with HW accel?
  • rsister88Tuesday, January 4, 2011 2:09:14 PM

    You're looking at it. Running on a Galaxy Tab.
  • Artur „Jurgi” JurgawkaTuesday, January 4, 2011 10:45:34 PM

    I do not like tablets (a computer for me is mainly a tool for writing), but it's nice…
  • Tom ZabopleskThursday, January 6, 2011 3:00:49 AM

    I want this on my G1! (It runs Android 2.1)
    but I doubt it will be any faster than Opera Mini :smile:
  • Jirayu YingthawornsukFriday, January 7, 2011 7:29:50 AM

  • Aung Kyaw ThinnSaturday, January 8, 2011 6:38:52 PM
