Opera Mini for iPhone has finally been approved by Apple and is now available for download in the App Store. First Opera Mini for Android, and now finally the iPhone!

Opera has gone a great deal to get Opera Mini approved for the iPhone and iPod Touch users. It was submitted to Apple back in March, but none of us had expected Apple to approve it.

This is what the Opera CEO has to say in the press-release:

“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.”

I have just installed mine ad have been playing with the browser, and no doubt it’s the fastest browser available right now! Page rendering is way better than on the Android version of Opera Mini. You may also like to check out our Opera Mini for Android review!

For now, Opera Mini is only available for iPhone and iPod Touch. May be sometime later, Opera will release an iPad HD version too!
