Some time ago, Opera Mini team released an application for Google Android which is called Opera Mini. You can find more about it here. Also, I am sure that Opera Mini team submitted its application to Google’s Android Developer Challenge.

In the Android Developers Blog, “Android Developers Have Risen to the Challenge” post it says:

In May, we’ll be informing the 50 Semi-finalists who will be awarded $25,000 each. Until then, the team and I will have our hands full.

So before anyone else, I’d like to congratulate Opera Mini for winning $25 000 and wish you good luck in the final :-)

Opera Software today announced that Opera Mini mobile web browser for mobile phones is now available on Google Android.

What is Android?

Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications.

Although there are no devices which are running Google Android yet, you can still try it yourself. As it says in labs.opera.com (click here to read more) page:

1. Download and install latest version of Android SDK
2. Obtain the Opera Mini for Android package
3. Once you have installed the Android SDK, start the Android emulator that comes with it (this can be found at {Android home}/tools/emulator
4. Transfer and install the Opera Mini package into the emulator – you can do this with the following command line input – {Android home}/tools/adb install OperaMini.apk
