While the company’s other mobile browser product, Opera Mini, has been available for Android handsets since July, the platform is will soon be getting its full-fledged browser, Opera Mobile.

The product will be free of charge and available in beta sometime next month.

Opera 11 with add-ons

Finally, Opera’s desktop browser will get the ability to be customized by users via extensions. No word on availability but you should be able to download it before the end of the year.

Hardware acceleration and pinch-to-zoom for Opera’s mobile browsers

Both Opera Mini and Opera Mobile users will soon be able to download a more polished version that – finally – includes pinch-to-zoom functionality, which makes for a much smoother browsing experience any way you look at it.

Also on the roadmap: hardware acceleration for smooth panning and zooming (which will be useful for a number of user interface experiences, as well as more robust gameplay etc.)
