Opera Mobile Hits 8.65

While we all wait with bated breath for Opera Mobile to gather up some of the cool zoom features of Java-based Opera Mini, there's an update for the current version to 8.65. New Features? Yep:

I'll cop to usually defaulting back to Pocket IE, if only because the rest of the OS seems to want it as the standard browser no matter what I do and it seems like it has less overhead. But the new flash support and the Save Image support are enough for me to give this 30 day trial a shot. Tabbed browsing is, of course, still in there. It's $24 after that.
