ok… First things first. I’m confused. Apple doesn’t allow any other browser to run in iPhone. Any other product which will pose a competition for the Apple Apps are banned from the App store.

So why is Opera even bothering to release Opera Mini for iPhone??? To my query Opera representative responded via email -

“We are bringing Opera Mini to the iPhone to bring the Opera Mini experience to even more users. We hope that Apple will not deny their users a choice in Web browsing experience. “

we too hope that but…. but…. I don’t think apple would do that… Maybe I’ll be proved wrong… Time will tell. Meanwhile jailbroken iPhones can use Opera Mini…. (Everyone jailbreak your iPhone)

Opera Mini is without doubt the most popular and most widely used mobile browser. Opera Mini is renowned for its compression technology, which results in significantly faster Web-page loading and reduces data surcharges. With favorite desktop features in its arsenal, such as tabs, Speed Dial and the password manager, Opera Mini is designed with usability in mind. By bringing Opera Mini to iPhone, Opera is expanding it’s user base by another 21 million (if Apple allows it, that is) Opera Mini for iPhone will be revealed in an exclusive press and partner preview during the 2010 Mobile World Congress (MWC)
