Opera Mini Browser - One Click
I just hope that this new One Click interface makes it easy to add and, more importantly, access 3rd party apps like Opera Mini browser. Uniformly, the web browser on such phones is a lousy POS and the Opera Mini browser is far, far superior. Yet most of these phones make it difficult to "one click" or even four click access such 3rd party apps, instead burying such user-installed apps deep down multiple menu levels. I hope these new phones and their new UI makes it possible to install apps such as Opera Mini at a UI level equal or near equal to any builtin functions (e.g. email, web, contacts, etc).

Follow the promps and its loaded!

I think you are getting Opera Mini and Opera Mobile. Opera Mobile is for Smart Phones and Opera Mini will work on any jave enables phone. Also you can add just about any 3rd party app to a Sprint phone like Orb or Google maps. VZW does not allow 3rd party apps since they use BREW and not java.

Yeah this 'new interface' doesn't look like its going to be THAT much different, I think its just the main screen or home screen of the phone that was focused on.
...
the only phone that I have not been able to install opera mini either 3.1 or 4.1 is on the palm centro, every one on my team uses OM 4.1 on their phone weather they are using a BB or a rumor. the Diamon is supposed to come out with the Opera browser instead of IE
