> Appelquist Daniel (UK) [2013-09-16T07:28]: >> * Opera Mini (what's going on with this in light of Opera's move to >> Chromium?) Opera Mini is still Presto (for now). >> * Amazon Silk >> * Nokia Xpress browser (on Nokia Asha phones) > if I remember it was Gecko under the hood. >> * now Google Chrome for IOS / Android Opera 16 for Android (released yesterday) swapped out its Off-Road mode, which went through the mini servers, and replaced it with a new version which compresses on the fly, but doesn't got through the mini servers (= JavaScript works as expected). I hope to publish mode details on how, but need bosstype approval. Perhaps tangentially, it's important to note that the canard that "Opera Mini is for feature phones" is untrue. Today, Opera announced more than 100 Android devices in India, Bangladesh and Nepal are pre-installed with Opera Mini. It's not the power of the phone, it's the network. Again, I intend to write this up soon but here it in breathless pressrelease-ese: http://business.opera.com/press/releases/mobile/2013-09-19_2
