Opera Mini for N900/Meego

2010-06-10 Thread Bernard Tyers
Hi there,

A friend of mine, a potential N900 user, asked me today if Opera Mini was 
available for the N900. 

AFAIK it is not. I know Opera Mobile 10 is available (and works nicely), but he 
wanted to use Mini for its proxying feature.

Does anyone know if Opera Mini will be released for Maemo/Meego?

thanks in advance
Bernard

Opera Mini is a J2ME app, so the only chance to run it would be in
MicroEmulator but AFAIK that's not really very usable in most cases.

If the proxying feature is using opera's proxy to save bandwidth,
Opera Mobile on N900 has this feature already.  Go to settings and
enable Opera Turbo.

 Does anyone know if Opera Mini will be released for Maemo/Meego?

I doubt it.

I believe that Opera Mobile in Turbo Mode is the same as Opera Mini's
proxying feature.  You'll need to double check that with how it actually
works, but that's my understanding.

 Ok, that makes sense.

 Hmm, any documentation/links you can point me (and him) towards? I have used 
 it for a few weeks and was happy with it. His requirement is for using it on 
 2G / bad network coverage areas.
 
 thanks

It's the same Turbo mode their other browsers uses, shown at
http://www.opera.com/browser/turbo/

There is a long thread at talk.maemo.org with the Opera devs who may
be able to answer any specific problems with it.
