I thought I’d toss this up – because PIE (IMHO) sucks and this is a welcome notice, however they are only announcing that they will be at some point releasing Opera 9 … but not yet.

However … I wouldn’t sit around the house holding your breath for this release to happen right away. We’ve been waiting for Windows Mobile 5 to be SUPPORTED for well over a year and that doesn’t appear to have happened yet.

Yea sure…. there’s Opera Mini – but try getting that to work on a BlackJack. You’ll commit suicide before you actually get it functional.

Opera Software today announced plans to upgrade mobile Web browsing by developing Opera 9 for mobile phones in all major platforms. Opera 9 has enriched Web use on the PC with new technologies, and now the leading browser innovator will deliver the same groundbreaking functionality to mobile phones. The upcoming Opera Mobile edition includes the latest in PC browsing features such as Widgets and Intelligent Zoom.
