Opera Launches Mini 2 Browser Application
May 3rd , 2006

Opera Software has today announced version 2 of its popular cell phone browser called the Opera Mini 2. The free browser was initially released in January 2006 and after gaining instant popularity, the company has decided to make improvements to it.

This browser can run on any smartphone thanks to the use of a proxy browser. Instead of the application itself finding internet routes and processing, the servers at Opera do this job. This thus makes the browser very lightweight and easy to download. Here are some of the new features of Opera Mini 2:

- Easy & smooth horizontal panning when scrolling forwards or backwards.

- Right click type feature that lets you save MP3s, images, etc directly to the phone via a convenient menu.

- Use of multiple search engines

- New themes and skins

- Improved bookmark menu that can be activated via a shortcut key

- SMS Mobile Ecommerce support
