    It’s nice to have Opera Link in it. The problem is, it does not work for me. I log in, it says it’s synchronizing, and it’s done, but my bookmarks are nowhere to find…

    It tries to sync Speed Dial entries too – with a bit more success…

    Damnit! After upgrade all my favorites and speed dials are gone!

    Bad enough I had to manually restore them from v9, but now have to do it again???

    I think an Opera Mobile version for Android too is ready, but it is not available for public consumption. The following page says its only available on demand to the operators and OEMs. I hope they release a public version soon.
    Also, it seems that they have already released the final version of Opera Mobile 10 to the operators and OEMS.
