After my yawn I went to my RSS Feeds and found that Tommi was already blogging about it. Lol, time difference.
I was able to successfully install and run the new Opera Mini on my N95, but had issues with the E61i. It couldn't detect my phone. Anyone else have any issues?
Well, I downloaded the beta on my N75, and of course the first site I visited was this one! The navigation bar under the logo (Main, Lifeblog, Shop, etc.) did not render well. It wrapped to three separate lines of options. The rest of the page looked good, however. I found no problems with the wrapping of text around images (though in the preview view, it looked like the text overwrote the graphics).
So far, so good.

I also couldn't download with my E61 (built-in browser). I used the "old" Opera Mini version on the E61, which handed over the download link to the built-in browser - THAT worked ;)

Does Opera Mini 4 support landscape mode?

I also used the "old" Opera Mini and it downloaded just fine to my E61.
I figured that the old version was similar to the WAP browser in its behaviour and hence would work.
Someone should tell Opera that the new S60 devices don't have a WAP browser anymore.
