So Microsoft smells profit? To me it sounds like the NetFront Browser, only with Trident as rendering engine and bound to windows devices...

Maybe I'm wrong.

I think you refer to http://www.access-company.com/products/netfrontmobile/browser/index.html
Both Minimo and Deepfish are at pre-alpha stages, I suppose. So NetFront and Nokia's mobile browsers are rivals of Opera in the real world.

@saito: Yes, I know that. I just thought that "Deepfish" to me sounds like a cheap NetFront.

_Grey_, please read my next blog entry, which quotes Engadget Japanese, to show Deepfish is server-client browser, just like Opera Mini, so it's not even a cheap NetFront :smile:

@saito: I'll definitely do so! Thanks for the news :smile:
