What is nopMotOp?

nopMotOp is a small proof-of-concept utility for running Opera v6.31 for UIQ on the Motorola A920, A925 and A1000.
All Motorola UIQ devices already have an Opera browser built-in, but either older versions or with some capabilities disabled, like small-screen-rendering, full-screen-mode or disable loading images.
You can check your browser's version by entering "about:opera" as web page address.
