Apple has just started approving numerous 3rd party apps in the recent 24 hrs. Apple has yet to comment on this. We are seeing previous releases that were submitted all the way back to October.

What is one suggestion is that perhaps they were in there own personal queue waiting for approval. This has happened in the past with articles being initially rejected, than later approved by Apple. A snippet of these new apps include:

Shaking Web ($1.99) – adds a sophisticated algorithm to compensate for small hand shaking to allow for easier reading.

WebMate:Tabbed Browser ($0.99) – Web Mate simplifies browsing by queuing up all the links you click on, then allowing you to view them one by one when you’re ready.

Incognito ($1.99) – No history recorded, its all deleted.

Edge Browser (Free) Full access to your browser in full screen. Show/Hide navigation.

Hopefully this can mean that there is now room for new browser submissions. Opera or Firefox, maybe even a little internet explorer, but who would want it? Just kidding microsoft fanboys. Even take it a higher notch and adding game emulators. Hey there out there anyways. Only time will tell.

This seems to be Apples response to the rampant Jailbreaking in my eyes, but who knows. Maybe Apple is just becoming more lenient.
