what's up everyone. I was just wondering why I can't get opera mini on my centro. can anyone help me. does anybody know any other app like it I can use? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Opera is based upon the Java platform and the Java platform is not a standard Palm default application. In order to use Opera, you just gotta install Java on the device. I have used Opera in the past and frankly was not impressed with it. Ben

thanks ben. do you or anyone else know of any good ones to use since mini isn't that good.

I am not saying it is not that good. I am saying I was not impressed with it. In addition, JAVA is great to play with, but I found after a week or so of using it, that it provided no additional functionality that was not there with the regular Palm OS applications - the memory it used for what I got just was not worth it.

In addition, JAVA on the device adds another layer of potential problems.

Some love Opera, some like me do not. Blazer has been fine for my uses.
