You can download Opera Mobile Beta 9.5 for Windows Mobile Pocket PC phones over on the XDA-Developers site. They’re the first team to release a fully functional free Windows Mobile web browser. They’ve included every function that I’ve been waiting for and made the first browser capable of matching Safari Mobile’s interface for the iPhone.
The features include:
- Double-click Zoom
- Smooth touch based panning

- Copy and Paste to other Windows Applications
- Plugin Architecture that allows for adding ‘Opera Widgets’
- Fixed form entry
