The details of a new Nokia 3G device for the US appeared on the FCC website recently. There are no pics available, but the web site says that they will be available in 45 days. The device seems to be a flip phone with a 1500 mAh battery. Read for yourself at the official FCC website
on this link. My money is on an Nokia 6650 NAM from AT&T.
Guys over at Engadget Mobile have posted some pics of the all new Nokia 6650 for T-Mobile. The device sports a 1500 mAh BP-4L battery and is only 16.2mm thick. Read the coverage
here at Engadget. Note that the model is Nokia 6650 and being stated as 6550 is a mistake made by the Engadget writer.

It seems that Google has now started to redirect you to mobile version of some of their pages when surfing through Opera Mini. Eg: Main Google search engine, iGoogle etc. Clicking on the Classic link at iGoogle only redirects you to the main page. So far this is less bothering, but if Google continues this into GMail etc. too (like Yahoo! did), of course this will distract many Opera Mini users. Of course, Google might be in favor to redirect Opera Mini users to their mobilized version too, because this will make their Java applications for mobiles more popular. Despite you use Mobile View or Desktop View, you are always sent to mobilized pages sometimes.
The new Opera Mini v4 build 4.0.10406 is live now. This version features Google as the main search engine on the start page. But unfortunately, this version directs you to the Google Mobile site, but you can anytime create a search engine to the Google WEBsite using Opera Mini's Create Search option. The older builds featured Yahoo! . However it is a known fact that most Opera Mini users liked Google to be the main search engine. Point your phone's browser http://mini.opera.com to download.
