The Opera Softwares mobile Web browser  has just become the defacto Inter-web viewer on future Samsung mobile phones. This just two days after the Opera Wii Web browser was launched for Nintendo's Wii console gaming system.

The partnership is certainly going to pay off, both for Opera and Samsung. The Opera Mobile browser is both simple enough to operate on a variety of mobile devices, and robust enough to offer users the best in mobile Web surfing features. And with Samsung being perhaps the largest mobile handset manufacturer and supplier in the world, this will certainly help to further strengthen the Samsung market share they already have.

Opera Mobile has already been used with PDAs for some time now, and this switch to a native and integrated mobile browser in cell phone was an inevitable one. Opera Mobile is a standard-compliant browser that uses a small screen rendering technology to reformat Web pages. Simply allowing users to view Web pages with some measurable ease on the small display of a cell phone.

Recently, the Opera Mini Web browser was tied to Nokia handsets. That agreement had Opera Mini shipping with a small yet growing selection of Nokia cell phones. Opera is also quite well situated in the PDA market. But on the PC desktop, Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox reign supreme.

Though the mobile Web browsing market is relatively small right now, it is growing. For Opera to get their foot in the door this early certifies their position in years ahead.
