After 24 hours, the free app was downloaded to 1,023,380 Apple devices, the company reported.<\/p>\n<p>  To get approval from Apple, however, Opera Mini could not be a true browser because Apple&#8217;s developer agreement forbids alternative JavaScript engines, and possibly Web rendering engines, from being released for the iPhone. But as Daring Fireball&#8217;s John Gruber pointed out, Opera Mini doesn&#8217;t actually render Web pages; it renders a compressed markup language called OBML, making Opera Mini more like a PDF reader than a Web browser.<\/p>\n<p>  Nonetheless, Opera said that iPhone users now &#8220;have a choice, and, as the numbers show, they are eager to explore new and faster ways to surf the Web on the iPhone &#8211; especially during heavy Web traffic,&#8221; according to Lars Boilesen, chief executive of Opera.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 9px;\"><b>Resource<\/b>:<br \/>\n
