Opera Mini iPhone Approved by iPhone – This is the latest news about the newest trends in technology. According to Opera Software, Apple on Monday approved Opera Mini, the first alternative Web browser for its iPhone. According to a release put out by browser maker Opera earlier today, the company’s free Opera Mini browser for the iPhone and iPod touch family of devices has been approved by Apple and should appear in the App Store within 24 hours. Opera Mini is optimized to work on slower data connections and could prove valuable to iPhone users that spend time in areas without 3G coverage. It will help iPhone users most where the AT&T network is most congested, in places like New York and San Francisco. As Daring Fireball’s John Gruber pointed out, though, Opera Mini doesn’t actually render Web pages. That’s done on Opera’s servers; rather, Opera Mini renders a boiled-down, compressed markup language called OBML, making Opera Mini in some technical ways closer to a PDF reader than to a Web browser. Here’s the full press release: Opera today announced its popular mobile browser, Opera Mini has been approved for iPhone and iPod touch on the App Store. Opera Mini will be available as a free download within 24 hours, depending on market. Opera Mini, with more than 50 million users worldwide, enables fast mobile Web browsing by compressing data by up to 90 percent before sending content to the device, resulting in significantly improved page loading. Users of the app will notice an uptake in speed, especially on slower networks such as the 2G Edge network. Surfing the Web with the Opera Mini App on iPhone and iPod touch will also help users save money because of its data compression capabilities. This will hold especially true while the user is incurring roaming charges. “We are delighted to offer iPhone and iPod touch users a great browsing experience with the Opera Mini App,” said Lars Boilesen, CEO, Opera Software. “This app is another step toward Opera’s goal of bringing the Web to more people in more places.” Opera Mini iPhone Approved by iPhone is a post from: Daily World Buzz Continue reading →
