I have a Gingerbread device (Xperia Play) and I tried to install this last night, it’s too slow as a browser, I got spoiled with the Chrome on my iPhone 4 and iPad 2. I like Opera way better for the Gingerbread phone (since Chrome is not supported on it).

Oh come on, you might not want to put any effort in, but I think you’ll find the Gingerbread proportion is more like just over 50% than over 99%. (from GSMA’s last report on it)

Using it for 1+ month on my Arc; no crashes, no issues and it isn’t too heavy nor does it need too much RAM.
Chrome, on the other hand, is too big for my taste and can’t be moved to sd card… + 50mb is far too much Mr. Chrome.
