Hi, just a note that as of today November 25, 2013, here in the US, the
instabrowser app is still free. I just picked it up.

Hi All,
Instabrowser, the iOS web browser app, is free today. It normally lists
for $2.99. This app was one of the AppleVis pick of the month iOS apps
for August. For those of you who use Instapaper or Readability, or make
use of the Safari Reader function that was inspired by Instapaper's
simpler and more accessible rendering of web pages (leaving out
extraneous images, links, etc.), Instabrowser aims to use a similar
display directly in an iPhone browser as a way of speeding up display of
web pages, especially on slow connections, and reducing cell phone data
usage. As an aside, this often improves the accessibility and quality of
the reading experience. Just as Safari Reader doesn't work for all web
pages, Instabrowser may not be able to improve the readability of all
complex web pages. This app is deisgned for iPhone or iPod Touch, but
can be used on an iPad in 2x mode.

Here's the link to the AppleVis entry:

This was also the subject of a Tech Doctor podcast earlier this year,
"Instabrowser faster than Safari":

The Tech Doctor Blog and Podcast contains show notes, but the direct

I'm posting this late, since this went up yesterday.and a check of
Twitter shows this is only free for 24 hours. So grab this now.
Cheers,
Esther
