Video: Check Out The WebKit BlackBerry Browser In Action

The WebKit BlackBerry Browser is coming.  It will support HTML5, CSS3, and DOM L3.  Personally I cannot wait until this thing comes out.

Here is a pretty good leaked video of the WebKit BlackBerry Browser in action…

Will this run on my Tour or will I have to buy a new BlackBerry? That is the big question for me.

Not sure, but I’d guess OS 5 may possibly be a requirement. What I’d really like to see is a demo of the browser not using WiFi. If the browser does work like it did in the demo regarding the acid test and pulling up Amazon’s site (anyone see “flash” on the soccer site?), then the browser may be enough for the heavy communications user who likes to browse as well. Would certainly keep me in the BB fold as I ponder a complete move to Google’s world of Android (one of my phones will be a Nexus One when it arrives). If the new Tour2 is anything like the Bold2, I’d probably go with that for my business.

Is it safe to assume that this will run on the new BlackBerry Bold. I am either going to get that or an iPhone when my contract comes up in May…

Since its the newest BB out there, you’re question is extremely stupid.

Will this completely replace/delete the BBOS browser,import all favorites, etc?

Is that really important? If it doesn’t, are you not going to go with the better browser because of that?

There are some of us that actually have a good chunk of mobile favorites & would like to have them transferred over by said new better browser. It would also be nice for it to just remove the old BB browser automatically & free up that space, etc.
