If the privacy of what you browse on the web is of no importance to you, then I recommend it as well. Even through Java on Windows Mobile, Opera Mini is quite usable.
And, as expected, daringfireball finds MobileSafari better and points towards the security flaws.
But, indeed, there is something nice about Opera Turbo (or Opera caching proxy that Opera Mini uses): it's really handy when on a slow connection.
I was outside 3G coverage for about a week and using Opera (the desktop browser) with Opera Turbo activated made browsing almost livable. The EDGE connection speed reminded me of the dial-up days...
Btw, Opera Turbo doesn't have any security issues, it only uses the proxy for non-SSL connections.
