Opera targets Chinese market with Oupeng mobile browser

Opera Software introduced Oupeng, a new mobile browser developed for the enormous Chinese subscriber market. In addition to leveraging Opera's signature data compression technology, which increases page loadings speeds by up to 10 times while reducing data consumption as much as 90 percent, Oupeng embeds support for Weibo, one of China's premier microblogging services, enabling users to efficiently share content, post updates and view photos. Opera developed Oupeng in conjunction with nHorizon Innovation Software, its joint venture with Chinese mobile phone distributor Telling Telecom. Release
