Google announces Chrome browser for Apple iPhone and iPad [updated]

Google pulled out a bit of a surprise during its second keynote of the Google I/O 2012 conference today by announcing that the Chrome browser will be coming to the Apple iPhone and iPad later today. The Chrome browser for iOS looks and behaves very similarly to the Chrome browser on Android devices, complete with gestures and syncing with other devices. Chrome for iOS is free and will be available in the iTunes App Store later today. Update: And it is now available!
