Looking for an alternate to your iPhone's Safari web browser? Stephanie Chu shows you the newly released, FREE Opera Mini Web browser, which seems anything but mini!
In what seems to be a surprise approval by Apple, Opera Mini Web Browser hit the iTunes app store this week in an attempt to blow Safari out of the water. With a slew of useful features, Opera steps up your browsing experience with one-tap thumbnail bookmarks which they call "speed dial" and tabbed browsing for multitasking on several web pages. You can also save content for reading offline and privacy preferences are readily available.
The app isn't without flaws (strange rendering at times, some UI nitpicks), but it's worth checking out.
