Instant loading isn't something to add at the moment just because Opera will waste space. Redirecting to isolated store will be done next time (it isn't hard at all considering current code base). Currently I am looking for a better way to port native apps - the way that would allow screen rotation and better ui in general. But that's also for a next time.

I gotta be honest. I don't see how Opera Mobile or Mini is better than IE9 on WP7. I don't see a point cuz IE is so awesome.
Ever since the mango IE came about i notice a decrease in battery life when using IE because mango IE uses hardware acceleration

in NODO i believe hardware acceleration was not enabled.

thesecondsfade, forgive me that I gotta be honest too, but:

This topic is not in WP7 Apps & Games. It's in Development section. And it's an excellent example how to run native wm exe in wp7. If you are the end user (according to your signature) - you are free to use whatever you want but I would offer you to use applications from the market and leave feedback in Review part of it. If you are developer - just come to this thread with proposals and ideas to help to develop.

I agree with that. Opera Mini was always better for me. Now if we could somehow get it to open YouTube correctly it would be perfect.

If you can tweak the user-agent string, it will recognize the IE Mobile user agent and respond by sending vnd.youtube links, which the phone will open in the YouTube app. Don't know if that's possible though; I can't run this app yet.

Alternatively, if it supports HTML5 <video>, just go to youtube.com/html5 and opt into that. It's what I do on IE9, both phone and desktop.

This is a long shot but, have you heard of memory map? Its a GPS based detailed map program used for walking, apart from the GUI it would need access to location services would it be possible to port this? If the launcher could get gps info and pass it along as a virtual com port I could could see it working, kinda of! Anyhow just curious


Sorry thought I'd sent that as a pm, apologies for off topic comment

I guess windowBreak isnt the same as heathcliffs interop unlock , because I get the message Oper Mini Launcher check your unlock state , or I could have missed something in the op?


I didnt read it , sorry
