Opera Mini vs. Mozilla

Mozilla has always been following up on the latest trends in the browser field (read:copying) so this comes as no surprise.

Was it necessary? If you say Mozilla is copying then what would say for IE. Mozilla has its share of innovations.



Is it available for S60 devices? If yes, kindly provide the link, I want to download it right away?

This is so fu<kin bad..

Released, okay; but on such a platform? Though yeah, a nice thing to do as they would have less bugs because of the limited devices using the platform.
When will this be available for Windows Mobile and Symbian.. Do it and I am sold.

If it's for mobile, then why are the files for installation so large?

Not based on Java, it works natively on the N810 (and probably N800 since they are basically same other than the slide-out Keyboard and WiMax in N810)...

But I would really hate if it was Java as I currently own Windows Mobile and a lot of potential will go wasted if it is released for Other mobiles(read: WM) in Java only. Also, handling of Java apps in Windows Mobile sucks compared to Symbian. ...
