New Opera Link allows mobile and desktop synching

The folks over at Opera have been busily working to lock down that pesky issue of being able to synchronize shared content between users’ desktop browsers and their mobile web browsers. The fruits of those labors is the new Opera Link solution, a melding of a MyOpera account and the mobile and desktop versions of the Opera web browser. In teaming these items up, users now can have the same bookmarks appear on both their desktop Opera browsers and their mobile Opera browsers.
To use the service, users must set up a MyOpera account and download the latest (v. 9.5) betas of opera for their desktops. Once Opera is installed and started up, simply choose the menu option "synchronize bookmarks", enter the MyOpera login information, and the bookmarks will be immediately synched to that account.
From the mobile side, a user will need to download and install Opera Mini 4 Beta, go to the menu option for "synchronizing bookmarks", and Presto! the desktop bookmarks will be installed on the mobile device. For those devices with a browser that doesn’t support Opera Link, go to link.opera.com to view the desktop links there.
