 　　Besides the desktop¹, where do you see the potential growth coming from?

　　除了桌面浏览器，您认为其他的潜在增长点在哪里？

　　Mostly mobile，but I think there’s a lot of potential in all the markets. The set-top box and TVs and cars and planes

　　主要是移动设备。但我认为所有市场都有很大潜力。机顶盒、电视、汽车和飞机

　　What exactly are your plans to really build out your presence here in the American market?

　　We’re putting more and more people on the ground here in the United States....

　　The mobile market in this country has been trailing the rest of the world.

　　美国的移动市场一直在拉动全世界发展。

　　But we expect that there’s going to be a total change in the next five years when it comes to browsers² and phones.

　　但我们预计未来5年里浏览器手机会有很大变化。

　　You’ll have full browsers like Opera on the phone, and we think we have the strongest product in that market.

　　手机现在可以用Opera浏览器的全部功能浏览网页

　　We’re going to push very hard to make sure that we have the market share that we should be having.

　　我们坚信在这一市场我们拥有最好的产品。我们会努力前进，确保能获得应得的市场份额。

　　In Europe, are you seeing that shift?

　　Well, I mean, we were on 8.8 million phones last year, and that’s up from 2 million the year before and 200,000 the year before that.

　　去年有880万部手机安装了Opera浏览器，而前年只有200万部，大前年才20万部

　　Do you expect companies will stop making WAP Web sites and just start doing HTML?

　　我觉得这说得通。我认为WAP未来没什么前途，我想大多数人也都意识到这一点。

　　With WAP 1，it was a totally separate thing, right. With WAP 2, it’s still close to the Web but it’s still incompatible³.
