This is the same guy who predicted that iPhone sales would peak in April 2010. Judging by the length of his blog posts his mind is a cluttered mess. Do not blindly trust his opinion even though he may sometimes be right.
He writes about all the device manufacturers and provides useful stats but he was always heavily biased toward Nokia (& Symbian) but since Elop's burning platform announcement he's almost started a crusade against him. I wouldn't waste my time reading his blog. He may be right about the Nokia/Microsoft partnership but only time will tell, they might produce some awesome devices.
Well put. Well people started making a fuss about Opera Mini getting approved I couldn't understand why. Safari on the iPhone is the best mobile browser out there in terms of both specification conformance and performance.
Because there is a percentage of people heating long waits... Safari is very nice but not responsive enough, and sometimes if you want just to read a news site, the user experience is just the same. Also I think that EDGE users will enjoy the fact that finally it's possible to have decent loading times of web pages.
I live in a city covered by 3G but when I from in my home town it's almost impossible to suft the web with Safari, while it was ok with Opera Mini on a Nokia N70 phone.
Opera Mini is surely not a drop in replacement for Safari Mobile, but it surely is a useful tool, much more useful than most of the other top-downloads in the Appstore.
And that will probably mean that you cannot run software you wrote on a piece of hardware you own without paying somebody $200 a year for the privilege of a developer certificate. Oh how I hate Java ME. (Well, technically you can run anything on Java ME if you don't mind answering a security dialog every five seconds. Like every time your app tries to save a backup or changes to a new directory in a file selection dialog.)
