Hmm... Rather interesting group of systems that support it.

Big ones:

IE7
Chrome
Safari 2.1
Mobile Safari on IOS 4.0



OS:  
Vista
OS X 10.5.7
Android Honeycomb   (3.X)  **
Windows Phone 7


I'm wondering what percentage of users are not using a browser that supports 
this- the biggest one is likely going to be Android, since so many people are 
still using 2.X versions.

How many people are using XP still?   

I think we might be able to make an argument for it at this point, even in 
production use.    Very good to know!
(Now I have to go change my interview questions for new candidates :)
