No Opera Mobile 11 for Windows Mobile
Today we launched Opera Mobile 11 for Android and Symbian platforms.
The mobile landscape is changing and Microsoft has moved their efforts away from the Windows Mobile operating system. No new devices have been launched for some time and the market share is falling. As a third party developer and a business, that is a reality that Opera Software has to adjust to.
We know there are many Opera fans who have been eagerly awaiting a new version of Opera for your Windows Mobile devices and we are very sorry to disappoint. But the unfortunate fact is that the platform can no longer provide the revenue potential that Opera Software would need to keep investing in it.
Regarding Microsoft's new platform, Windows Phone 7, Opera is continuously evaluating that and other platforms and we will make products available when and where there is a business case for doing so.
Opera Mobile 10 and Opera Mini 5.1 for Windows Mobile will continue to be available for download. We hope to meet you again on another platform in the future.
Thanks for all your support!
