    Definitely Opera mobile. It loads so much faster, and I love the speed dial boxes on the home page.

    ???

    Opera Mini uses data compression on their servers, and the 5 beta version has speed dial, so I don't quite understand the comment

    I've used Mini and like it, haven't tried Mobile yet so can't judge. My screen is smaller though - E51

    In my 5800 XM, the Opera Mobile crashes all the time. So, I use Opera Mini happily.
    They are more or less same anyway.
    Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.

    I use Opera mini beta 5. For some reason, they removed the Opera Link function, but the rest of it works pretty nicely.
    Squirrel!
    If I tell you who I work for, I'm not allowed to help you. If I don't say, then I can help you with questions and fixing products. Regardless, there's still no secret EU law.
    Now 20% cooler

    Opera Mobile. Mini is Java based - opera mobile will have more features etc. and is generally more powerful.

    Thats really strange, as I've got a 5800 xm, and its been fine so far, and is really fast. It is beta, so hopefully any bugs will be ironed out soon. I had used Opera mini previously, but have now uninstalled it.
