Opera Software announced that the most popular mobile browser in the world, Opera Mini, is now compatible with mobile phones that use the BREW platform developed by Qualcomm.

Providing an excellent mobile Internet browsing experience to millions of users, Opera Mini is now available for the feature-rich BREW mobile phones too, increasing the number of users that can browse the Web from their mobiles through the Opera software. Opera Mini provides lots of advantages, like the Small Screen Rendering (SSR) technology which transforms web pages to fit perfectly on the screens. Plus, the latest version of the browser, Opera Mini 4, comes with a new "Desktop Mode" that enables users to view pages exactly as on PCs, while its Opera Zoom innovative feature allows a more dynamic navigation and an intuitive Web experience.

"We are excited to provide Opera with the ability to extend the offering onto BREW-enabled devices", said Bob Briggs, senior vice president and general manager of BREW for Qualcomm Internet Services. "Opera Mini represents another way that customers can have an enhanced user experience with high speed and content rich Web sites right from their BREW phones."

"Opera consistently aims to improve the quality and performance of mobile Web browsing. By making Opera Mini available on Qualcomm's BREW platform, we are able to offer a fast and cost efficient Web experience to millions of mobile phone users", said Jon von Tetzchner, Chief Executive Officer for Opera Software. "The rapid growth of Opera Mini solidifies Opera's leadership position in the mobile Web browsing space and is further proof of the value that leading operators, such as TATA Teleservices, are finding in our solutions."

Opera Mini 4 is available free for download form the Opera website and any BREW-enabled handset user can try it now.
