Its about time to shed some limelight to S40. BUT! Many have tried to topple Opera Mini, none have survived. Nokia still have to innovate. Symbian freaks will cry! Hahaha!

Does someone know why some S40 devices are supported, but some other, also recent ones, are not?

Different hardware architecture? It's definitely not lack of resources, AFAIK.

Try Opera Mini 5. It works on many series 40 phones and actually has tabbed browsing.

Tried it.
Opera Mini 4.2 is still better though, with more features and a bit faster overall.
