We all have different priorities.)<br />Because it exposes a fallacy that is being made by all the glowing reports of Android in the reviews: that it is close to par with its greatest competitor, the iPhone. Clearly there are some fundamental issues when it doesn't perform the way it should. And if everyone just keeps on pretending that everything's fine, it won't get better.<br />And for HTML5 developers it needs to get better. (When I said 'burned badly' in this post, I mean it. I put my professional reputation on the line based on the HTML5 compliance reports of the Android browser. I was sorely disappointed.)Red3https://www.blogger.com/profile/04282781304122099649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9295154.post-26486496984845021792012-02-10T14:01:39.937-08:002012-02-10T14:01:39.937-08:00I see your point now except why you are so obsesse...I see your point now except why you are so obsessed with map scrolling in a mobile browser. Besides of course that you just are and you develop these things when no one cares about them and they use the Google maps app.<br /><br />For normal every day browser page scrolling, the ICS browser is almost flawlessly smooth now (4.0.4) and in my opinion better than mobile safari because it supports flash and you can get up and down your pages much faster.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9295154.post-81443298791250292682012-02-10T12:11:13.358-08:002012-02-10T12:11:13.358-08:00I'm reporting on what I see.

This is opposed to Chrome Beta where it seems ok in portrait mode, but stutters noticeably in landscape mode. You are way off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
