Symbian #

I think that anyone with half a brain would have twigged pretty quickly that Webkit was the key here.

But it does show how everyone is clamouring to be associated with and in the same mental frame as Apple.

Well, it doesn't take much to realize that Apple has some sort of massive PR/Religion going on, so obviously people would want to hang onto that.

Seems like as long as you're running S60 you might as well just grab Opera Mobile. I'd say that the "now not featuring Safari" would be a plus for me, seeing as how I can't stand to use the desktop or iPhone/touch versions.

So it safari then, just not the swish version of the iPhone.

I find the S60 safari better than either version of Opera on same qvga phone and better than IE on WinMob.

What other mobile browsers are there?
