I can see the usecase for this. Especially abroad (expensive data) and in areas with poor data (Edge connection or even GPRS) this would be a life-saver.

- feadism 12y agoSome GSM operators in Europe already do that, transparently in the backend, so you get heavily compressed images etc. on poor connections.

I have had Opera Mini installed on my iPhone since it was released for exactly this reason—it performs noticeably better than Safari when at the very fringes of data service coverage. It's not really a situation I'm in terribly often, but it has saved the day a handful of times.
