Since Apple said no to Opera Mini browser because it copies a feature that the iPhone already has in place, it's a really big surprise to get noticed that Apple suddenly allows third party browsers put into the App Store. These new 'lucky' applications include: Edge Browser (free), Incognito ($1.99),  WebMate:Tabbed Browser ($0.99) and Shaking Web ($1.99).

While Apple has made no official acknowledgements, it appears these applications were likely in a special queue awaiting for approval. We had seen a similar "group" delays with other categories of apps. The most notable example involved flatulence applications such as Pull My Finger and iFart Mobile. Once Apple decided to allow the category within the App Store, a backlog of apps quickly appeared.

Hopefully, it could be a good sign for mobile versions of Opera and Firefox to be included into App Store. How do you think?
