I was browsing the net today, just searching for more info about the Dubai release of the iPhone when I suddenly came across
the Safari browser. It was released in it's BETA version for Windows. Safari was always meant for the MAC OS, but it seems like the folks at Apple wanted to take advantage of the iPhone's instant success.
It was an 8 Mb file, I got it downloaded in about 2 minutes. It got installed in about a minute and I fired up the browser.
My first impression of it was, it looked like iTunes. It looked so clean, no extra addons or stuff, and I didn't need flash to play games or view videos in Youtube.
I think Apple has focused more on the performance of the browser, not the looks.
It loaded pages much faster than IE, and a little faster than Firefox.
I have read reviews on the net that this browser is full of bugs, and the security isn't really good, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't download it. But keep an extra browser with you if you don't like it. I've heard incidents about it crashing and one incident where it took 729 MB of someone's computer.
I haven't experienced a single problem until now. It hasn't crashed even once. A step in the right direction for Apple.
Here's the download link ---> Safari
