You guys have got to try this:

Its well worth looking at now as they've updated it a good bit since the last post in the old thread.

You can check out all the updates they've made here

and i believe the source is open as well they've got a git repository they talk about in their blog here http://code.staikos.net/

coolest part is the browser identifies itself as the iphone broswer so sites that are optimized for that come up like you are using an iphone!

and aside from being a bit slow (which may have been my connection / i'm hoping they will get worked on) the websites work exactly like on the iphone!

cute little effects, pans, and all!

not to mention it runs very quick, has cool tab changing animations... a heck of of alot

first site to check out with it?

iphone.facebook.com (works almost flawlessly just slow on pans)

not a facebook user?

google works too! (a bit glitchy though obiviously relies on some safari stuff thats not there)

i'll come back with some more sites to check out once I get to play with it a bit more

I saw an earlier thread about this but there were alot of sucks posts on the first page I thought would scare people away from giving this potentially awesome (awesome as in if they get it right... it could be better than opera 9.5 awesome...) upcoming app a run through so the guys can get some good feedback and keep making it even better. so thats why i made a new thread
