Peaches Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 IE9 Superior to Safari – Browsers Running on Windows Phone 7 and iOS iPhone Respectively Internet Explorer 9 is clearly superior to Safari in one demonstration provided by Microsoft during the Mobile World Congress 2011 in Barcelona, Spain on February 14, 2011. At MWC 2011, the software giant announced IE9 Mobile, a flavor of Internet Explorer 9 tailored to Windows Phone 7. IE9 Mobile is planned for delivery to WP7 users by the end of this year. By the end of 2011, owners of Windows Phone 7 smartphones will be able to enjoy the same browsing experiences as those running the next generation of IE on the Windows client, is the promise from Microsoft. "IE9 on the desktop provides consumers and developers with great HTML5 support that takes full advantage of the hardware for great performance. IE9 on Windows Phones will as well," revealed Dean Hachamovitch, Corporate Vice President, Internet Explorer. "We've worked closely across the Windows Phone and IE teams over the last few months to deliver the same IE9 browsing engine—the same code, the same standards support, the same hardware acceleration, the same security and privacy protections—for Windows Phone as we've delivered on the desktop."

isteve Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Microsift needs to work on their marketing, statements like this are just stupid. You can't say something is superior if it doesn't exist yet. They could use terms like "will be or should be superior". But then again how do you know what the other product will be like at the time of it's release. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peaches Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 IE 9 will be released shortly. Presumably this comment stems from tests being done on the product vs Safari Quote Link to post Share on other sites
