Sony Electronics uses the Opera browser for its new mylo personal communicator

Opera Software today offers details on its embedded browser for Sony’s mylo personal communication device. Available in the United States in September, the mylo communicator serves as an entertainment and communication device for those who live in Wi-Fi enabled environments. With the Opera browser, mylo communicator users can surf all their favorite Web sites, including popular webmail services such as Yahoo! Mail and Gmail.

“We are excited to be a part of this unique and versatile new device from Sony,” says Scott Hedrick, Executive Vice President, Opera Software. “A communication tool such as mylo requires a browser that can deliver full Internet content in a seamless and easy to use manner. Users surfing while on the go want their information fast and reliably delivered. With Opera’s extensive experience in providing the full Web to mobile phones, it has proven to be the best choice for mylo.”

Using Opera’s Extensible Rendering Architecture (ERA), Opera instantly adjusts Web content to fit the mylo’s 2.4 inch color LCD screen, providing a better, more intuitive Internet experience by eliminating horizontal scrolling. The Opera browser for devices is renowned for maintaining full browsing features on devices with fewer resources than a typical desktop computer. With full Web standards support, the Opera browser is easily ported to devices such as mylo – delivering a superior browsing experience on any device.
