Well that's an option. But pressing the home key it exits. That is how I do it in my G1.

In the world of Android, an app that is loaded in RAM, but not executing is by definition a properly closed application (this differs from how it works say in Windows). Only apps seen on the screen are active, the rest just occupies RAM and idles until more RAM is needed whereby one or more idle apps may be thrown out.

Sweet. Opera Mini is such a good browser I use it almost exclusively. Except for downloading images I don't use it, since they are compressed and lower quality than the default browser. I wish they would give the option of turning image compression off, then I'd never use another browser at all!
