Opera Mini for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad

A must-have app for all Apple mobile products. Browsing on this little app is helluva lot faster than using Mobile Safari since it uses socket connections to to Opera’s server which is acting as a super-proxy (local pun). Super proxy because it does most of the rendering and code processing on the Opera server which saves up a lot of time and bandwidth. Its a lot safer too (I think) since it doesn’t go through the usual HTTP port. (Hmmm.. will have to verify with a packet sniffer.)

Some pages, however, get rendered in its “mobile version” (even this wordpress blog) which is kind of annoying. Still, Opera Mini is awesome enough to be my default browser for Apple mobile devices.
