Ah yes, here we go:

"The app [Opera] is the first not to use a WebKit-based rendering
engine [...] Much like other versions, it sends websites through a
proxy that compresses as much as 90 percent of the data; nearly all
load faster as a result. [...] Since the pages aren't rendered
directly on the phone itself, much of the code interpretation that
Apple normally forbids wouldn't be present. Apple has always allowed
competing browsers as long as they use the WebKit engine when
rendering pages locally."

So it seems "Opera Mini" is basically a JPEG-Viewer with clickable images ;)
