Opera has announced that Apple has in fact approved Opera Mini for the iPhone, with the app now available in the App Store.
This follows Opera’s novel PR campaign to predict how long it would take Apple to approve or reject the browser, since Apple has previously rejected browser apps on the basis that they emulate functionality already found in its Mobile Safari browser.
This is especially good news for first generation iPhone owners, as they will be able to use an alternative browser better suited to EDGE data access, since Opera Mini uses server side compression to deliver web pages, considerably speeding up page delivery by removing unecessary elements that slow down page rendering on the device.
Fun.
Great product & a great option to have.
Thank You
