I use it on my Sony Ericsson T616, it works wonders. Miles ahead better than the built-in browser the phone ships with.

builds on the same great technology of the Desktop version. Opera is a perfect contender in size and speed to the bloated FF. Opera rocks, period. Watch out for the release of Opera 9 for the desktop very soon.

Works great on my crackberry 7100. One of the many reasons I hate this device was it's terrible browser but not anymore. The browser renders most sites, get this, as expected! Nicely done.

As a J2ME developer I can tell you those guys at opera are gods. When you look at the tools you have to develop this thing and how well it works you can only be admirative.

Works great on my V3 RAZR from Cingular. Don't forget one of the first things that Mini does is check to see if you have a network connection; it shows this page with a link and asks if it's okay to test. Did you skip that step?

w00t! This wasn't avalible on Palm at the begining. Now I have it working on my Treo 600. Much better than that standard browser that comes with the Treo.BTW, when you go to download JVM from Palm, if you choose the Treo 600 option, they'll say that you need to pay for it. Just choose the Treo 650, as that is free, and the file is probably the same, as it seems to work OK.

I've heard reports that T-Mobile has a crippled WAP-only access plan that isn't compatible with Opera Mini.If you've got the cheapest Internet access plan, then forget about using Opera Mini. :((Happy Sprint user... :))

Newbie here.... I'm trying to get this configured on my blackberry 7105i and it keeps telling me "You do not have a working network connection. Please visit <a class="user" href="http://help.opera.com/mini/">http://help.opera.com/mini/</a> with your desktop browser for instruactions.(error:3.0.10:80/)" I couldn't find anything about it in the help menu.
