App Stores At War As GetJar Bans Opera Mini: ?We All Have To Make A Living?

Begun, the alternative app stores war has. According to a tweet from GetJar Networks, which provides an alternative, platform-agnostic mobile applications marketplace, the Opera's Mini browser has been kicked off the alternative app store offered by the Lithuanian company. The reason for the ban (based on later messages GetJar posted on Twitter - they say an explanatory blog post is coming soon) is that Opera Mini now boasts an app store of its own, courtesy of a partnership with Appia (formerly PocketGear).
