Just bought the pro version, very nice :)
The only strange thing is that the font and the buttons in the widgets and for example in twitter for firefox are too small!! Is there a way to change this?

The problem is that most web apps (and mobile UI frameworks) are created for devices with about the dot-per-inch ratio of original iPhone. N9 has about 1.5 times that pixel density, which makes content rather small(ish). I'm investigating this and there are a few ways to go with, such as using 1.5x zoom level by default and giving the option (per widget) to use 1.0x instead. Can't promise this for the next version, but I might be able to do something about this for the one after that.

So I guess twitter and facebook mobile websites are not well focused on N9's stock browser for the same reason...
Thanks for looking into this, sometimes it's pretty hard to press some "x" buttons for example :)
Thanks again and keep up the good work!! :)

Well, the default browser actually tries to act as if it had horizontal resolution of 320 pixels. This is mostly to ensure compatibility with mobile web sited designed for iPhone. It's a pretty decent approach to the issue.

And it goes to changelog... done.
* Changed default device pixel ratio to 1.5
* Implemented support for viewport meta tag

Had to build a bit of a hack though, since QtWebkit seems to do all kinds of wrong things with the viewport meta tag even though it claims to support it. So I completely ignored Qt's handling and built my own.

Great news :)

Some additional information (with pics) about the upcoming version on my blog.

I'll try to finalize the changes as soon as possible. Tizen apps' viewport handling is currently giving me some headaches but I'm sure I can figure out something.

It's just a shortcut widget that shows http://m.facebook.com/. There is already such a widget bundled with Hydra. But yes, it works.
