Norwegian Internet browser firm Opera Software has agreed with
U.S. mobile phone group Motorola expand an existing contract and
license its browser for Motorola phones for three years, Opera said on

browser market," Opera Software ASA said in a statement.
Opera has also licensed its small-screen browser to other mobile
handset manufacturers, including Nokia and Sony Ericsson.

operating systems supported by Motorola, including Linux, Windows
Mobile, Symbian, BREW and Motorola's P2K," Opera said.
