The following user agent string should be reported as a mobile browser, but is not: Opera/9.80 (S60; SymbOS; Opera Mobi/320; U; sv) Presto/2.4.15 Version/10.00 I suggest adding both "SymbOS" and "Opera Mobi" to the check. Thanks, Jacob

Hi Jacob, Thanks. I'll do that. As far as the UserAgent string, what is the meaning of 9.80 vs 10.00? There's already another open ticket regarding this. I'm trying to figure out which should be the actual version number reported back etc. Thanks, Olaf

Hi, when the Opera 10.00 beta was launched testers noticed that lots of browser sniffing scripts simply took the first number of a version string, which meant Opera 10.00 was reported as Opera 1. It was decided to report the browser as 9.80 but with Version/10.x at the end of the UA string, otherwise too many pages would break, which would be bad for the users. If you want to get the actual Opera version, you should get what's after Version/ at the end of the UA string.
