Opera has released a preview of Opera Mini 4.2, the newest version of its mobile browser.

Opera Mini 4.2 beta claims to provide a more personalised experience with a selection of new skins, improved support for YouTube and other mobile video services on a wider selection of mobile phones.

"The number of people using Opera Mini worldwide proves that there is a true revolution going on: people want to access all their favorite Web sites on the mobile phone they have today", says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera.

"We constantly focus on developing a faster and more personal browsing experience. Opera Mini 4.2 beta is an update
