They haven't "released" v4.1 -- this is a "beta" release for those that wish to test it and provide feedback.

I've updated the post to reflect this point.

You don't know how happy I am to have an iPhone right now.

I just installed the update from the 4.0 on my Motorola v3xx and it only asks you the security question once per session instead of every time you navigate. This is a HUGE relief.
and TMM, I love the I phone from what i saw of it, but this is the best $40.00 3G phone with a 2 gig sim card I have ever owned.

Opera have NOT released Opera Mini 4.1, they have released Opera Mini 4.1 BETA; that is, pre-release software. You might want to mention that at some point.
