"We have never witnessed such an incredible surge in mobile Web usage from one country," says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "Egypt has made a resounding move to embrace the mobile web. Last month, they displaced Germany for mobile web usage. This month, the United Kingdom and Poland, two stalwarts for Opera Mini use, fall behind Egypt. It certainly appears the sky is the limit for the mobile web in Egypt."
