1-million Opera browser for iPhone downloads (999,990 unsatisfied users)

Not content to provide a crummy browser for PCs, Macs, and smart phones, Opera gives the world a mini browser for the iPhone. After over 1-million downloads the first two days, Opera crows:

The fastest browsing experience available for your phone. Opera’s rendering speed and efficient controls put it light-years ahead of other mobile browsers.

Light years? Please. Opera mini browser is a disappointment. It uses non-standard caching for the download speed (you don’t actually view the web page you browse), and the font rendering is horrible. Fail.
