I spent some time recently playing with the AT&T branded version of Opera Min<\/em>i that the operator is using as its default browser on at least four new devices<\/a>.  The Pantech Reveal,<\/em> released earlier this month, is the  first phone with the new browser.<\/p>\n

There’s not even an “About” screen acknowledging the browser’s origin.  For anyone familiar wih Opera Mini, it’s pretty easy to see att.net’s parentage in some of the menus and  the way pages are rendered.
