Opera 8.65 for Windows Mobile coming soon

Opera MobileOne of the best web browsers for Windows Mobile is getting an update. While it's not Opera 9 just yet, version 8.65 adds a number of new drool-worthy features for any mobile browser:
  • Grab and scroll through screens on Pocket PC edition devices only
  • Web search in the address bar
  • Save images
  • Copy text
  • Send a link as an e-mail, SMS, or MMS
  • Import IE bookmarks
  • Multi-language support
  • Support for Macromedia Flash Player 7 for Pocket PCs
  • FlashLite 2.1
We're pretty sure that flash support does not mean you'll be able to view the full versions of flash video web sites like YouTube, but there's always the mobile version.

Opera 8.65 will be a free upgrade for registered users. Right now if you click the download button you're taken to a link for Opera 8.60, but look for the new version to go live any minute now.
