Opera Mobile 9.7 (With Turbo)

At next week’s CTIA Wireless Show, Opera Software will be announcing the new Opera Mobile 9.7 server-accelerated browser for smartphones and mobile devices.

Opera Mobile 9.7 with Opera Turbo compresses data up to 80%, reducing traffic and data charges and page loading times.
As an example, the Opera website have a video showing 'Opera Mobile 9.7 with Opera Turbo', 'Opera Mobile 9.7 without Opera Turbo' and 'Microsoft Pocket IE' opening the same page.

Microsoft Pocket IE = 3 mins 27 sec
Opera Mobile w/o Turbo = 30.2 secs
Opera Mobile with Turbo = 9.2 secs



It is following Skyfire and Iris' lead by rendering the webpages for you and then sending them to you.
Opera have this handy little flow diagram :


Will this leave Windows IE 6 behind, before it even starts?
