They also reannounced [nando.net] the long standing agreement [opera.com] with Opera Software [opera.com] to embedded Opera in the Symbian based devices.
...its 9210i phones will use an operating system from Symbian, a joint venture between Psion, Ericsson, Nokia, Motorola and Matsu****a. The Opera browser will come as part of Opera's partnership with Symbian.
From the list of manufacturers involved Ericsson, Psion, Nokia, Motorola and Matsu****a (owns panasonic), they should also be able to get the bandwidth up to modem levels hopefully, and create a very serious traffic target for the webmaster and optimizers. Hopefully this move by Nokia to opera will over a couple of years seriously diminish IE in its 90%+ dominance of the browser wars.
I wonder what the resolution of the 9210i, will be, as i write opera complient html which shrinks from 640*400 upto 1600*1200 using tables for control, though i can see mobile browsing as a massive market to come, resolution and page complexity will have to change, whether it be two different sites, using proxy, cookie's or or other types of browser identifying scripting to switch sites on page requests, hence one for the computer and one for the mobile. anyhow, it looks like all the hype maybe a reality very soon
