Yep, Opera Mini is way faster than the native browser on the blackberry. Browsing the web on the blackberry browser is just as slow as it is on the iphone in this demo video. Using opera mini is still slow, but it's at least as fast as using 56k back in the day.

Finally !
Norwegian Co. Opera Mini: 6 times Faster than Safari browser by compressing almost 90% of Data on the Web page before rendering it. For quicker Web pages simply reading. It works great on Blackberry, Windows Mobile, Palm, Symbian, Android (Platforms) and others mobiles devices.

A whole month to get a major release approved? I know apple is an anti-competitive company, but that is insane! Just imagine if microsoft took a whole month to approve an app...oh wait, that would never be a problem because even microsoft only forces approval for 64-bit drivers, not smartphone apps.

Safari is a terrible browser...as crummy as IE8, but without the compatibility. Opera would not be doing this well if this were not the case.

I like mainly Safari better, because Opera Mini doesn't do pinch to zoom right on iPhone. Safari on iPhone is far from terrible. In fact it's the best mobile browser around.
