And I for one thank you for it. Looks like a great release so far!

It still gets Google readers list of articles wrong though just shows a couple of them with a scrollbar and a load of white space instead of filling the page.

Can anyone explain what the values mean in the adaptive zoom settings?

wow this is changing very fast. Perhaps there is no need to build Opera mobile into ROM.

This build still is unable to download files completely.

In order for links to work in minimum overview zoom, you need to change it from 60 to say 70.

Let's see if the soft keyboard pops up and if the space left by the keyboard is reclaimed.
Edit: keyboard still pops up unexpectedly, but seems like it's able to reclaim the space after toggle off of keyboard.

Still abort itself unexpectedly though.

Seems whenever I try to type in an address, it switches back to full-screen mode after a few key presses so it takes several attempts before I can get a full address typed in. I had to change the minimum overview zoom to 85% again for links to work.

Strange, I don't have such a problem. Am using the stock ROM though. The link will also work with minimum overview zoom set to just 70%

I've noticed since I posted this that the soft keyboard doesn't have the problem. Only the hard keyboard has this problem.

I had read your post about that and tried 70% first, then went up to 75, 80, and finally 85 worked. Must be a difference between your stock ROM and AP4. (?)

The new installation doesnot set Opera as default browser. I have made a cabfile that will define Opera as default browser again.

Does anyone already know a solution for the keyboard problem. I hate it when Opera changes to full screen while entering text with the keyboard.

I hate the keyboard issue, & now with a much better release of NetFront out I have switched for the past 4 days and been very happy. Opera is a good product, but these niggles are not going away and NetFront feels easier to use.

I can scroll in multiple ways (including the scroll wheel on my BT mouse) and the rendering of the typical sites I use is fine.

I suspect that most people will end up with both, but for time being I am happier with NF.

I also find it incredible that Microsoft can put out PIE and think that this is adequate. The WinMo platform is fast falling behind others but the apps that MS would have us use are so poor as to be laughable. When can I have a working Android !!!???

In the last few days I've been getting out-of-memory issues that I never had on the other 9.x releases. The touchflo settings are way to sensitive in this release, too. I've debated going back to the version I used before (Opera_9.5__Build_781__Diamond__Uninstallable__VGA ) but it had other issues and didn't render nearly as well.

I'm hoping for a newer build soon.

I disabled the cache and it works fine. Haven't had any memory errors and I'm using a Universal not an Athena so you guys shouldn't have any problems!

Crashed once today, one keyboard popup glitch. Other than that it's better than Netfront, primarily because I get sh**loads of DNS/certificate/inflatable chipmunk errors with Netfront which DO MY HEAD IN!

No such problems with Opera which aside from the lack of flash support is about as good as it gets.

Still not as good as the Iphone browser, but getting there.

Now when are opera going to bring us an Email client that's ALMOST as good as the Iphone one?

I can only sit and wait patiently.

People can slate Apple/Steve Jobs till the cows come home, but there's some damn good stuff in that Iphone: without it we'd have no Opera Mobile 9.5, no Touchflo, no fancy Touch Diamond GUI and probably still a rubbish browsing experience on our Winmo devices.

Credit where credit's due, eh?

Can't disagree with a word of that and I am a die hard MS fan but if Apple come out with a 5" iPhone/tablet device with VGA or better resolution and make the browser cope with flash I'd buy it without a seconds thought.
