    I really like the opera browser and this news is very disappointing. I think it would have been so much better than the safari browser.

    I would rather have IE5 than Opera, but I do think it's time apple pulled their fingers out of their corporate arses and allowed some competition.
    why can't we have tomtom? Firefox and or Opera? how about an office (compatible) suite, java, flash, a home page, landscape for all apps.....

    personally I would like to see firefox for the iphone, but that is pure preferance, it just runs smoother and faster for me, but i might be biased. But they should at least release opera for the jailbroken iphone i loved it when i used it on my RAZR.

    I think we should get OPERA MINI BROWSER to work with Jailbroken iPhones. Since so called Apple "Policy" doesn't work. We should do it our way. Apple Engineers are so stupid that they have disabled so many good features like MMS, Video Recording & Bluetooth sharing on the iPhone. So studpid. Where all the Jailbroken iPhones have all the features.

    Haha.. Stupid Steve Jobs..

    One thing that has not been mentioned is that as Opera mini compresses the web page significantly (in my experience up to 75%), download costs will be reduced. This mean reduced income for Apple's exclusive partners which they won't like! So I suspect Opera Mini may be be rejected if and when it is submitted.
