Opera Mini transforms how people use the Web
This week Opera Software celebrates the one-year anniversary of Opera Mini. Within its first year, Opera Mini has changed the way millions of people access and view the Web on their mobile phone. Designed to work with almost any mobile phone, Opera Mini is available free from www.operamini.com.
“This is a celebration for our users,” said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. “Thanks to the more than 10 million people who have downloaded and used Opera Mini, we’ve changed the way users and mobile operators think about the mobile Web. Because of the tremendous grassroots support, Opera Mini is now a movement.”
Opera Mini lets you take the Web with you. Instead of limited WAP content, you are free to browse the Web the same way you would at home on your laptop or desktop computer. You can use Opera Mini to post pictures to MySpace, search the Web using Yahoo!, shop on Amazon or check Gmail.
“People want to communicate with friends, read their favorite blogs and check email; it’s not sufficient to offer them limited WAP content,” said Ajit Jaokar, CEO of FutureText and author of ‘Open Gardens: The innovator’s guide to the Mobile data industry’. “At the same time, offering full Web access to subscribers drives more revenue for the mobile operator. It becomes a win-win proposition for everyone.”
