Opera Releases "Opera Mini" J2ME applet!!

So, here's my question. Being that it needs J2ME, and we can use http://www.palm.com/us/support/jvm/ , think we'll be able to use it? Rollout of this product is very limited at the moment, and I wasn't able to find any place that had it...

I'm really wondering how it would perform on my T|E. Think about it, nearly full page rendering... *drool*

How bout it, what do you think..
Got my fingers crossed..

This got me excited too because I'm a Opera fan. I'm searching around for more info and I'll post back if I find anything good. :)

The possibility of a java applet, that renders pages better than any current PDA web browser out there, really has me wanting to find out more on this. I've never used Opera myself, being a recent FF convert, but I'd definately take the leap for my Palm. :) Hope you can find some good info! :D

Oh my ...! WOW! Downloading and installing in a heartbeat!

According to the Opera Mini page, this requires an remote server to crunch down the web page before it's sent to the phone. I suspect that this would be maintained by the provider, rather than something that Opera themselves operate. FYI, if you can't get this to actually browse, this may be why.

I might have had a bad install of the J2ME environment, but I won't be able to find out for a while..

Best of luck for every one else..

I'm waiting for MiniMo to come out. The mobile Mozilla browser. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/minimo/ Hopefully they will start working on something for Palm OS.

I would love a MiniMo browser, but there has not even been a hint of a rumor of a palm OS version. Still hoping though!!!
