Opera has just dropped a beta version of their popular Opera Mini browser, and it looks like they’ve hit the nail on the head. Adding tabbed browsing, a much-improved “quick dial” for your bookmarked pages, plus a few other additions and improvements could put Opera back on top.

Opera has put up a nice video showing off the new features, you can view the Opera Mini Beta 5 Video here.

The only thing it is lacking that the reigning champ, Skyfire, has over Opera Mini now is Skyfire’s incredible support for media, including Flash and Silverlight.

Interested in giving the new Opera a try? Head over to Opera’s website and download it! Please leave some comments with your thoughts after you’ve tried it out!

Beta of Resco Photo Viewer 7 is Awesome!

resco_photo_viewer_7_beta_screenshot_1Resco’s Photo Viewer v.6 is a must-have on all of my Windows Mobile devices, right back to my PPC 6700, so it was with an ear-to-ear grin that I saw Resco had released a beta version of their soon-to-be-released version 7. I had spotted a few spy shots of the alpha version and it looked good, but I am just tickled pink with the beta copy I just installed on my Xperia X1.

A beautiful, easy-to-use new UI makes the app totally finger-friendly, which was the only drawback to version 6 and earlier. Add simple integration with Facebook, Twitter and other online networks and it looks like the perfect image viewer for Windows Mobile. It surely beats anything else for WinMo, and is arguably the best image viewer I’ve seen on any platform!

Download the beta version of Resco Photo Viewer 7 straight from Resco and be sure to leave your thoughts below!

Today Skyfire announced the latest beta build (0.9) of their popular mobile browser for Windows Mobile and S60 platforms.

This beta build includes a lot of new social aspects including the native integration of both Facebook and Twitter feeds.

Users with Facebook and Twitter accounts can import their news feeds and Twitter streams into Skyfire and easily publish their status to these networks. Users can also share and publish any web page to their Facebook and Twitter streams by simply going to the share menu in the Skyfire browser.

I’ve been playing with this latest build for the past few days and I have to say, I’m really impressed! I’m a huge fan of both Facebook and Twitter and Skyfire 0.9’s “real-time activity wall” (feed aggregator) is awesome. I’m also impressed by many other improvements as well, such as less required scrolling, better text rendering, and of course Skyfire remains my top mobile browser pick for its ability to support Flash Web pages, video, and its speedy load time.

Head on over to Skyfire’s site to download the newest build for FREE and check it out for yourself! Skyfire suggests that users uninstall any previous versions of Skyfire that they may be running on their phones before installing the 0.9 beta.
