Today Opera Software made a new and improved version of their Opera web browser available for Nokia mobile phones.Their previous version was only for the Nokia 6600 but this one works on all phones based on the Series 60 platform Nokia 3650/7650/N-Gage. Opera 6.1 for Series 60 is much smaller and uses less memory than its predecessor. According to them this version uses approx 250 KB less RAM.
Series 60 is built upon Symbian OS, and is Nokia's target platform for data-centric mobile phones, so-called smartphones. Series 60 phone owners can enjoy the full, open Internet in a meaningful way for the first time with Opera's Small-Screen Rendering (SSR) technology that reformats Websites to fit on small screens. "It's wonderful to have the opportunity to share with our many users the progress we've been making in the smartphone space," says Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "Opera 6.1 for Series 60 offers an unparalleled Internet experience for a mobile device."
Opera 6.1 for Series 60 includes an array of new features and improvements that all contribute to making Opera even more compelling for surfing from smartphones. Apart from the smaller size and less memory usage, surfers can enjoy a new menu interface; improvements in SSR, especially in the handling of frames and numeric tables; along with several bugfixes. Opera has also localized the S60 browser for the first time, the version is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese traditional and Chinese Simplified.

If you find any bugs in this beta version, please send email to tell us about them so we can fix them!
- Improvements and Bug Fixes in 5.1 (beta 1)
- Secure Server transfers....HTTPS! This is a registered-only feature, and the main big change in 5.1.
Medium: - Added so the download windows are resizeable. Makes the report much easier to see everything at once.
- Fixed something that could cause "stuck at 99%" problems for some FTP servers.
- Added "File Types" to the folders on the download status...so you can more easily have things like .MP3 automatically filed.
- Change some options for the Server Synchronizer to give more control: sizes separate from dates, overwrite/resume separate, option to put everything into the same folder, etc.
- Improved the "Log Into Website" functions to better handle websites with several forms on one page (like a login and a search form). Should now pick out the one real Login form.
- Fix/change some things that seemed to cause rare crashes for a few people.
Minor changes: - Fixed so if you select a category on some screens (like the Advanced Download in the browser) it fills in the folder for that catetory in the Save To area.
- Added a few more columns on the Download Status. "Save To" folder where the file is being saved, and "Last-Modified" the date/time the file was last updated on the server.
- Fixed bug with really long file path+names in the "Recent Finished Files" menu not running right.
- Added so in the Click Monitoring, you can set the "Ignore" key combination to be no keys pressed--that way GetRight will be set to ignore everything in the browser unless the keys are pressed for "Catch" to specifically tell it you want to download a file.
- Fixed so the Verify URLs functions should get User/Pass from the Login (FTP & Basic) page right.
- Added some Right click menus on the Mirror Manager window.
