Windows Mobile and Opera Mobile 9.5
Posted by Pete Paxton in "Smartphone News" @ 10:00 AM
"IMHO, Opera Mobile 9.5 is even better than the iPhone’s Safari browser because I can perform functions like text selection, copy and paste, manage passwords, and save or send images from a web page. The only pages that found incompatible so far are Google Docs. I was able to view spreadsheets in Google Docs, but not word processing documents. I could not edit either though, but since I don’t use Google Docs very much it isn’t a concern for me. One major improvement is that I can now access the custom WordPress ZDNet blog management page. With Opera Mobile 9.5 and the HTC Advantage I can perform blogging on the go with a single ultra mobile device."
Another comparison to the iPhone. This time it's a browser war. So those of you who own an iPhone and a Windows Mobile device, which browser is your favorite? Is Opera indeed better than Safari as the article suggests? If one is better, how much better is it and why? Is one more stable? Better formatting? Less limitations? I look forward to reading your results.
