This release has a secondary new mode that we hope will replace the older OBML-without-javascript mode over time, as devices get faster. It's basically Opera Turbo v2, attempting to get optimally efficient network benefits of the old Opera Mini to work with full web rendering using webkit. (On iOS Apple have been thoughtful enough to make it possible to make it possible to replace the network layer of the built-in webkit component.)
- acc00 12y agoCool, so OBML remains on Presto until it is phased out completely? Can you point to any papers/specs/sources concerning OBML or the likes? I was always fascinated by it (and have been trying to do something similar for my own amusement, most recently with webkit), but while getting a serialised render tree to display is trivial, making something half as usable as Opera Mini has always been seems impossible. I believe there is still a huge market for smaller devices (probably smaller than feature phones) on which this style of web access is much thought after.
