Opera Mini - which version?

[Guest soup dragon]

Hi,

I've recently installed Opera Mini on my Vario II and think it's better than IE for a few sites (such as Sky Remote Record!). The only problem I've come across is that it seems to be a memory-hog and sometimes forces a reset to get things moving again.

I'm wondering if I intalled the wrong version (Wizard version as I couldn't see a Vario II/Hermes version).

For those who are happlity using Opera Mini, which version did you install and are you experincing any problems with it?

I use Opera Mobile.. and think it's definatley worth paying for...

I also tried Opera Mini (just to see if I could get it to work) from the opera website the other day.

I was quite impressed by it.. the rendering is better than PIE.. but I would still recommend Opera Mobile instead of opera Mini.. and as there's a beta about at the moment you can try it for ages before you decide to buy (or not as the case may be)

From what I understand on the site, the beta expires on June the 1st, so you end up with a nonfunctional app...

but then you've had a premium web browser for a couple of months and can un-install it any time you like...
