Onavo Extend, an existing iOS app that helps you save up to 80% on your data consumption, has just added support for 4G LTE iPads, and the iPhone 4S on CDMA networks.

Onavo Extend installs a configuration profile (which includes your operator's APN settings) on your device so that data you receive from the Internet is compressed in our cloud-based compression service, located in datacenters operated by Amazon Web Services.

I've been mopping up ever since.

Care to discuss this in our forums? Go ahead!
