After what seems like an age in waiting, Apple has finally approved Opera’s alternative browser Opera Mini for iPhone. <\/p>\n
Seen as a direct competitor to Apple’s native browser Mobile Safari, Opera Mini promised to be faster and more efficient. After just over 5 weeks in Apple’s App Store approval process, many people thought the app was going to fall victim to the companies questionable ‘approval policies’. In fact, the company, quite controversially, started to count the amount of time since original submission<\/a> to final approval with a public count-up<\/a> script. <\/p>\n As a result Opera’s browser gained a huge amount of attention from the mainstream media, worldwide. After their fairly long wait though, everything paid off, with Opera announcing today<\/a> Apple had indeed approved the application for sale on the App Store, and it would appear on the store shortly.<\/p>\n
