Opera Mini is a version of the Opera web browser that has been optimized for mobile usage. It is a very popular mobile browser that has hit the 50 million active user mark in March 2010. It was all over the news some time ago that Opera was developing a version of Opera Mini for Apple devices like the iPhone or iPod Touch. It was at that time unclear if the application would be accepted by Apple.
Today Opera Software announced the approval of Opera Mini for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch devices. The Opera Mini application is available for download in Apple’s App Store.
One of the main advantages of the Opera Mini browser is a feature called Opera Turbo which compresses the data before it is send to the mobile device. This not only speeds up the web browsing experience (especially on slower networks) but reduces the bandwidth costs of the user significantly.
Iphone and iPod users can download Opera Mini directly from their mobile devices or by opening the Appstore in iTunes to download it instead.
