Opera Mobile 10 for Android now available, but not to you

– December 10, 2009Posted in: Android, Browser, Opera Mobile, OperaMobile, OperaMobile10, opera, opera mobile 10

Android’s always in need of a better browser. Hell, every mobile platform is — yes, even your precious Pres and iPhones can always stand to eke out a little more speed, a little more rendering capability, and a little more functionality (yeah, that’s right, Flash), and Opera Mobile has always been at or near the top of the game. Version 10 — which is currently in public beta for Windows Mobile and Symbian — has now been turned loose on Android, but the catch is that it’s only available to carriers and manufacturers of devices right now. The reason? Opera claims that these versions “present limitations that hinder mass consumer distribution” without elaborating — and if you ask us, Android’s built-in browser has plenty of “limitations” in its own right, so seriously, Opera, go ahead and turn it loose. We won’t judge. Okay, maybe we will, but we’ll go easy.
