I was going to argue with points 1 and 2 until I saw points 3 and 4. Just one note: In Fremantle, from a user's viewpoint, the browser is not really referred to as "MicroB" but just as "Web". The only time I've seen it referred to as MicroB is in the package names and in "about:"...

That said, it is probably going to take me time to realise that I should stop hitting the "Web" menu entry if I want MicroB!
