Yesterday we released a new version of Opera Mobile 10 beta with multi-language support, as well as an updated version of the regular release.

The multi-language build includes a font package covering several Asian languages.

In addition to this, both builds contain some minor fixes:

• Font handling fix
  
• Cache size is calculated at a different point in the loading process
  
• Reduced frequency of error messages when out of memory occurs
  
• RTSP support is added
  

I will explain this in a bit more detail.

The ability to render Asian characters in web pages depends on the system fonts installed on the device, and doesn’t require the special multi-language version to be installed. However, rendering Asian characters in Opera UI elements such as history, page title, bookmarks, dropdowns, etc requires the extra font package in the multi-language version. Note also that the additional font package will only be used if the device locale matches one of the fonts included in the package.

The font handling fix ensures that Opera makes proper use of the installed system fonts for web page content. The first release did not use system fonts correctly, which caused some English language pages to display squares on devices with certain Asian locales.

The next two fixes in the list will reduce the frequency of out of memory (OOM) messages. We know that a lot of you have commented about high RAM consumption and frequent OOM messages, and these fixes should hopefully alleviate the problem somewhat.
We acknowledge that Opera requires a fair bit of memory - a full web browser will need resources to handle complex web pages. For this first beta we have focused a lot on smooth panning and UI transitions, but rest assured that we will work diligently to improve memory usage for the next release.

Finally, the updated builds have RTSP support, so that RTSP content is passed to the default media player on the device.

Even though we put lot of energy in making sites work better, there
remain some not yet solved bugs, most notably in the Desktop version
of Facebook. We’re working on them, but had to postpone them to avoid
delaying this release.

As usual, there is no need to make any manual changes to benefit from
a server upgrade. Enjoy using Mini!

Opera Mobile 9.7 beta is now available for download. We first showed Opera Mobile 9.7 at CTIA in late march, but we needed some time to stabilize and test the new Opera Presto 2.2 core version.

The big news in this release is Opera Turbo. Opera Turbo is a server-side compression technology that compresses data up to 80% before it is sent to the mobile phone. Opera Turbo speeds up your browsing experience significantly when you are on a low bandwidth network (like EDGE). You will however not notice such a big effect when you’re connected through WiFi or a high-speed mobile network. You can turn on Opera Turbo in the advanced section in the browser settings. Opera Turbo for Opera Mobile is still a preview feature, and we appreciate all feedback.

Download the browser here.

Today is an exciting day for Symbian smartphone users. After a long wait, the Opera Mobile browser is available for Symbian S60.

When you launch Opera Mobile you will immediately recognize the most characteristic and useful features of the Opera desktop browser: Speed Dial, tabs, integrated search engine and much more. You will also notice the new and elegant user interface, the same already introduced for Opera Mini 5 beta. These familiar features coupled with the new, fluid user interface will make your mobile Internet experience easier and more enjoyable.

The new UI is only the beginning. Under the hood, you will find the newest Opera browser engine, which will boost speed and compatibility with Web sites and services: the power of a desktop browser on your mobile!

If that were not enough, we add Opera Turbo to the mix to improve your experience on slow networks and reduce the quantity of data downloaded from your phone.

You can have a quick view of Opera Mobile 10 beta on YouTube and, if you have a Symbian S60 smartphone from Nokia, Sony Ericsson or Samsung, you can download it directly on your phone from m.opera.com/mobile.

We are looking forward to your downloading the new Opera Mobile browser and receiving your comments!


Known limitations:
- Asian language phones are not supported.
- Soft keyboard is shown even though hard keyboard is slid out and in use.
- Only partial IME support.
- Occasional freezes under stress conditions.

Since JavaScript site patches are used to improve site compatibility, an enhancement allowing developers to bypass those patches has been included. The setting is available when entering the "config:" URL, but should always be enabled for normal usage.

All users automatically benefit from the upgrade (no manual change is needed, though it is possible to check the server version using the "debug:" URL).
