Yeah, the problem with the webOS browser is that whilst it was ok 2years ago, it has never ever been updated and the system cache appears to be very low as opening multiple windows can really slow the OS down.

That said though, even with the "unable to open mime type" messages in the browser and the odd mis-placed button, it will always try to open the desktop web page, unlike the Android browser which appears to actively sniff out mobile web pages. Even when selecting the desktop view, Andriod will often still want to load mobile web pages. (They are my personal peeve)


Now I agree with many that the multi tasking is superior on harmattan and when it comes to browsing it is essential because the browsing experience sucks big time. The stock browser fails too load many of pages, way more than the other browsers that we have to resort to having multiple programs open at once just to view your desired web content.
