It’s how Opera Mini works (sort of) but not how Opera Mobile works.

Going by the title, yes, that's (sort of) how Opera Mini works, but going by what he wrote, no, not really. He seems to be talking about browsers as servers on the client side, not turning browsers into glorified image viewers.

Every Opera can use Opera Turbo to get recompression of pages. The author is talking about something more than that, though, he's basically talking about VNCing to a server.
