True also, but only on N900/Maemo5. On the N8x0/Maemo4 platform, where the gecko-based Micro-B is very slow and kludgy, Tear is a real screamer, fast and slick. It is only less "usable and as well productized" because it is a one-man effort in POC state. Clearly there is no reason it could not be as good or better than the Nokia browser if it was granted the same level of resources... _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
