Earlier, we reported that Apple had rejected Opera Mini from the App Store. A New York Times blog entry claimed that Opera's CEO and co-founder Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner said that Apple wouldn't let them release Opera Mini for the iPhone because it competed with Mobile Safari. John Gruber, of Daring Fireball, did some researching of his own, and found out via anonymous sources who do not wish to be identified, that the situation is a little bit different.

Indeed, Gruber calls out people for wrong reports - http://daringfireball.net/2008/10/translation_duncan_riley - if he wasn't confident, and got proven wrong, he'd be in for a massive backlash.

Grubber has this thing for calling out bullshit from other writers, so i kind of doubt he's just make it up himself. he has real contacts at Apple where he likely got this information from.
