I quite like the zoom function which is snappy and effective, and ultimately gives me the feeling that I am indeed browsing the full-fat version of a website rather than a hobbled mobile site. That said, I am also a big fan of sites tailored specifically for the iPhone - things like ANZ banking - which could be cumbersome if used full size. </p> Love Safari on iPhone (apart from the regular crashes).

I've used maybe 2 java apps in.... 10 years perhaps... I do however belive safari on the itouch / iphone is easly the best I've ever used for a mobile browser. I've tried the other offerings like opera mini and opera for mobile and others.. they are all incredibly slow or just don't work at all... so I'm quite happy :) <br /> just my humble opinion however.</p> I belive it could benefit from flash to some degree…. as for java..
