Opera Software has a new partner for its “custom Opera Mini” scheme called Web’n'Walk. It’s Cosmote Romania, which is delivering a branded version of the mobile browser to its customers in Romania.

The special version of Opera Mini will feature a customized user interface, Romanian localization, and bookmarks of popular local websites, such as Ziarul Financiar, Gandul, Gazeta Sporturilor, Hotnews, Libertatea, Mediafax, and ProSport; as well as the Cosmote portal.

And if you’re a Cosmote’s customer, you can grab Opera Mini from mini.opera.com/wnw_ro. Around 50 devices from the carrier’s portfolio are already compatible with the browser with more to come. Cosmote also promised to expand web’n'walk with more relevant content (widgets) for all users.

Cosmote Romania, member of the Cosmote Group, is the 10th company to select the Opera Mini-powered Web’n'Walk service since inception. Recently, we saw Russia’s MTS and Indonesia’s Telkomsel taking the same route.

Finally, if you’re not a Cosmote’s customer and want to give Opera Mini a try, hop over to operamini.com and take it from there…
