I've had problems with the newer input types using various browsers.
In one case, I had multiple email address fields on a page (with other
fields). Having them set to type="email" caused browser autocomplete
features to go crazy in Opera and Chrome, making the form unusable in
those browsers.

I would still recommend trying to use the new form elements, but I
would also recommend testing them in a wide variety of browsers that
your users will be using, and being prepared to scrap their use if
necessary.
