Optimus

Oslo, Norway and Lisbon, Portugal, July 25, 2007 -- Opera Software, the only company that puts the Web on any device, today announced that the long-standing Opera partner Optimus, a leading mobile operator in Portugal, is offering the Opera Mini mobile Web browser to their 2.6 million customers. Optimus is further sweetening the offer by giving away Web access to their customers until the end of August.

“We made this partnership with Opera to provide a superior browsing experience to our mobile users,” said Miguel Almeida, Optimus COO. “Browsing the real Web — not WAP — on a mobile phone will become ubiquitous and it is no longer restricted to those with the latest smartphone — it's available to everyone. To help our customers explore this new service, Optimus has selected Opera Mini to provide them the best Web experience, offering it for free, until August 31, 2007.”

Opera Mini is the revolutionary Web browser for almost every mobile phone. Beyond bringing Web content to everyday mobile phones, Opera Mini includes bookmarks, RSS feeds, secure access to email and online banking.
