Mobile Apps 2Day: Opera Beta Better with Link and Download Manager

download_dialog_progress_non_touch.pngThe latest versions of Opera Mini 5 beta and Opera Mobile 10 beta are out.  The update adds features that include both Opera Link and a download manager.

Opera Link uses your Opera account  to sync bookmarks, Speed Dial options, and browsing history among  Opera browsers.

With Opera Link, users can synchronize personal browser settings with their Opera desktop browser, as well as all their connected devices, ensuring that their bookmarks, Speed Dial and search engines are always accessible. The Download Manager gives users a better way to control and speed up downloads to mobile phones.

Features further polished in the second beta release are the unified look and feel across Opera's browser products, the visual bookmarks known as Speed Dial, and tabbed browsing, one of the most popular innovations in browsing history.

"For Opera, status quo is not an option. We are always improving our products, adding new functionality and features to deliver a faster and more personal Web experience," said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "Also, unifying the look and feel, regardless of device, makes it easy for anyone to get online anywhere, anytime."

The far-reaching popularity of Opera Mini continues to grow month after month. Opera reports that almost 40 million people used Opera Mini in October, saving the consumers 9.4 billion USD per year just by choosing Opera Mini.
