Default [CAB+] Opera 9.5 Build 2745

I was doing some research on this build since it seems to get positive feedback across the board. Decided to paste a few links on here for our VGA phones for everyone to try out.

Seems to make web pages view like a normal desktop (and work well with flash?)

I am also hoping that one of our great chefs will be able to eventually make a cab with all the edits and mods complete, and incorporate them into new ROM's.

Just to be clear, this should just overwrite the built-in opera, not install a new one, correct?

Seems to work okay, but slooooow. It seems to load part of a page and then stop? Is there a way to make this better?

I don't use Opera that much, would love some more insight into whether hopper13's claim is accurate or not?

Just an FYI, although this version of Opera is a bit faster than stock, there are numerous reports of issues with this build of Opera (i.e. Opera closing when loading a website, or for no reason at all). Once you install this, you cannot uninstall it, so use this at your own risk, because you may end up having to hard resetting your phone.

This is correct. I have not heard of anyones Opera slowing down with this build, I have only heard better results for speed.

I am just wondering if I have some setting that may be causing difficulty when loading large pages. As I said, they seem to load a bit, then pause for a long period before resuming the load. This behavior seems to happen both with 3G and wifi connections.
