Opera, Microsoft, and the Mobile Browser Market

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the web-surfing-on-the-go dept.

DrEspenA writes "Salon has an interesting article on the competition for the mobile phone browser market. Ostensibly the article is about Microsoft's efforts to dominate the market, but the key protagonist is really Opera Software, which may be gaining the (initial) upper hand simply because they are not Microsoft. Good discussion of whether standards and familiarity really is necessary in the mobile browser market."

    As it happens, Opera is a very good browser anyway. If it was open source it would get more support and would develop faster.

    Yes, and I wouldn't get paid to work on it. You dumb cunt.
