Ive downloaded and installed opera mini onto my satio. It seems to work very well browsing, but I cant work out how to enter a new website address? Tapping on the address bar selects it but no keyboard comes up?

Tap again, and a list of recently entered addresses pops up. Tap yet one more time, and a fullscreen text entry panel appears. Tap yet another time, and the one of Satio's text entry panels you have chosen for text input appears. It's a bit combersome, but it works.

@harvy2001: It's a very big difference in the way opera mini works compared to opera mobile. Even though the user interfaces are very similar, opera mobile is an ordinary web browser, which downloads all information from the requested web server and displays it, while opera mini actually uses a proxy server on at opera's domain, where the web page is translated and compressed to a very small format, which is sent to operamini and displayed. Thus, Operamini uses much less bandwidth in order to display a requested web page. You can read more on opera's web site.

Opera Mobile 10 contain the new feature Opera Turbo, well-known from Opera 10, which uses Opera mini's algorithm.

The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand...

ah, almost right. Tapping again does nothing. You have to select 'insert symbol' from the list that pops up. Not the most obvious choice of wording but it works!

Use Opera Mini 5 Beta 2 and you won't have any problems. That version contains build-in keyboard for phones like Satio without physical keyboard. And it's very stable.

I believe that the turbo mode requires special support from the website you visit.

No, absolutely no. Have you tried browsing with Opera 10 when Turbo is on?
