Freeware: Download Opera Mini 4.2 Beta Mobile Browser

There are many news about browser around lately, aren’t they? Just a while ago I posted a heartbreaking news about the divorce of Android OS and Fennec and the Opera Mini for Android G1. Now prepare for the arrival of the Opera Mini 4.2 Beta!!! You can download Opera Mini 4.2 Beta version by following the link under this post.

I guess all of us agree that the Opera Mini is the most famous mobile browser to date, and Opera claimed that each month, unique downloads of Opera Mini reached 20 million. Woooowww….That’s 12 x 20 million = 240,000,000 unique downloads a year!

They’ve created a bit of a song and dance over this preview with more customised new skins, and better support for mobile video services such as YouTube.

Other improvements relate to Opera Link, which allows phone users to share notes, bookmarks, and browsing history between their mobile phones and their PCs.

Opera has also upped the browsing and loading performance by introducing a new server in the US of A. This is coupled with reducing the load on servers elsewhere in the world, therefore making it faster everywhere else too. Isn’t that just wonderful.

They believe they’ve seen an average growth of 10% in users of Opera Mini every month on a global basis. As their browser just keeps on improving in speed and functionality, Opera expects Mini’s popularity to just keep growing. Hurrah!

It’s around now to download in a standard version in both JAR and JAD formats, and is also around for BlackBerrys and Palms too.
