Opera is ready with Mini browser for iPhone
iphone news
Norwegian company Opera is ready with a new 5 Opera Mini browser for iPhone. They will show ot on Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona.
The message is bold: Opera claims that Opera Mini is faster than Apple Safari. The developers are positive that this is due to the use of compression which shrinks a web page with up to 90% before it sent to your mobile device.
Opera Mini 5 will have other nice features such as tabbed browsing, automatic management of passwords and others. Synchronization between the desktop browser and mobile browser is also provided.
Opera already had some success in placing its Java-based cell phones such as BlackBerry or on the Android smartphones. Debut of the new Opera Mini will be next week before a narrower audience.

7 million requests for Flash to iPod touch and iPhone in December
iphone news
About a year ago Adobe and Apple announced they would work together to provide users of Flash to iPhone and iPod touch. As you may guess the project is clearly not advanced much since we have not heard anything about the subject. Instead, relations between the two companies are very strained and Steve Jobs even called Adobe “lazy”. We do not know what in fact they do work in Adobe but it appears that in December the company’s servers have been targets of 7 million queries for iPod touch and iPhone to download the software. If this is not a figure that can motivate Adobe to work faster and Apple reconsider their position to allow the standard in mobile phones we really do not understand what could be motivating.

4th-generation iPhone will be with small changes in design
iphone news
iResQ is a site for iPhone support. Because of the work performed by the device, the company received the parts which are allegedly from the 4th generation iPhone. Of course, things change and the design can also be changed out before the final product. But if this were indeed parts of the next generation Apple iPhone then design changes are minimal.
As with the first model, LCD display is affixed to the touch panel, while 3G and 3GS two are separated. This is important for technicians repairing equipment that will raise the price to repair the screen because both parts will be replaced simultaneously. The front panel of 4G is about 6 mm longer than that of previous models. Over the speaker has a mirror surface which is perhaps the proximity sensor. If so it is located in a different place compared to previous models of iPhone.
If these parts are actually 4th generation iPhone then Apple clearly adhere to the old tested formula rather than to make radical change. Yet nothing is known with certainty and may have new hardware changes, however, specifies the expected major changes to the software.
