Opera Software today announced its newest version the Opera Mini browser, up to 50 percent faster that prior version. Opera Mini 4.1 searchs for text within a webpage, provides URL entry with recognition based on bookmarks and browsing history, uploads and downloads files without going into the phone's native browser and downloads pages for offline viewing.
"More than 44 million people from all over the world have discovered and fallen in love with Opera Mini," says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO of Opera. "Those people are not just the users of Opera Mini, they are also the co-creators and our most valued critics of the product. We have actively talked to our community members in order to build the best Web browser for mobile phones. I strongly believe that the newest version of Opera Mini will be received with much excitement."
