1000% more internet!

tirsdag, oktober 07, 2003

Optimus, the first telecoms operator to ship it's phones with the Opera browser, has had an increase in network traffic of 416% since it first started shipping the phones.

1000? Yes, because only a tiny percentage of Optimus' subscribers have Opera on their phones. Why so much? Opera has SSR, letting you surf the entire internet on your mobile.

I didn't try it on a phone yet, but you can experience it by hitting Shift+F11 on your Opera 7 browser. Having a love for the plain functional and solid Siemens mobiles, I certainly know which phone I'd like next...
