Om Malik from Business2.0 blogged that Google is looking at buying mobile brower Opera.

This makes a lot of sense as Google has been positioning itself to make strategic move into the mobile search space for quite some time.

Shanghai base mobile browser Tonehub is making moves to be the browser of choice for local handset manufacturers; this might make their life a lot more difficult, especially because Opera is now free thanks in large part to its September partnership with Google.
