Opera Mobile Reaches One Million Downloads
Opera Software today announced its one millionth download of Opera Mobile from its corporate Web site
Opera's revolutionizing Web browsing experience for mobile phones has quickly propelled it to become the absolute most popular 3rd party application on the Symbian OS. It the software company two long years to deliver its mobile browser for various devices on various platforms with many millions licenses sold to handset manufacturers and operators.
Before Opera introduced SSR (Small-Screen Rendering), the technology that displays Web pages in a way that is entirely customized to best suit a handheld device's screen size and resolution, the telecom industry had lost hope in an open mobile Internet. SSR got the ball rolling again with users demonstrating enthusiasm for the ability to access normal Web pages reformatted to their screen size. Two years after the introduction of SSR, Opera is now in the lead in this market, bridging existing operator services with the full Internet.
In addition to having been pre-installed on a plethora of devices, Opera is also available for download and purchase on all Symbian Series 60 and UIQ handsets — of which the following are currently available in the retail channel: Nokia 6620, Nokia 3650, Nokia 3660, Nokia 6600, Nokia N-Gage, N-Gage QD, Nokia 7650, and Siemens SX1. Free downloads are available for the Sony Ericsson P800 and P900.
