'Opera Coast' WebKit-Based Browser Now Available for iPhone

Without data compression (that makes browsing on EDGE tolerable... And saves $), this is the most pointless Opera product - quite literally, ever.

Protip, Opera team. Stick to your roots. Do what you do well, and enhance that.

Data compression? It's 2014! I have unlimited 4G data plans on my iPhone and iPad. Data compression is so 2007.

And for what it's worth, Opera Coast appears to be a very good app. I've just been playing around with it for 20 mins and it's smart, slick & intuitive.

Unlimited 4G data plan? What country? What socioeconomic status? If you're paying 90/month or more on one of the minor carriers in the USA, maybe. If you're in Europe, that's literally not available. If you're on a major carrier in the USA - not available either. Asia? Africa? Unlimited data isn't there either. South America? Nope.

Thinking in a USA-Centric sense is so 1950.
 
I don't know about being proud to be part of the EU. I was merely stating a fact that the UK is part of the European Union.

However, the EU does have it's good points but a lot of those are lost underneath the bureaucracy and nonsense.

That's still a lot more than most Brits I've spoken with. A lot I've talked to wished the UK had never joined.

Yeah, because Britain standing on its own would have been BRILLIANT :rolleyes:

I don't pretend to know much about British politics and the EU, I just know what I keep hearing from my British friends. They tried to explain why, but it all just confused me. A lot of nationalism, if you ask me.

They probably read in one of our awful tabloid newspapers that it was bad and probably believed everything that has been said.

Intelligent people on the other hand realise that whilst the EU is not perfect, the benefits out-way the negatives. Of course this could change in the future, but I am talking about right now.

That's all we can talk about.

So the tabloids are bad in Britain as well?
