more Have used Lunascape on my desktop before, it's a solid browser alternative. Have also seen it on the iPad, but I don't own an iPad. But it seems to really shine on the iPhone. I guess they've bothered to make it useful specifically for the small screen. I like the tab-browsing cause I always have at least 3-4 tabs open. I like the "thumb slide" feature between tabs, too. Slide your thumb across the different tabs and it switches easy. I synced all my bookmarks through Firefox sync. That's pretty excellent.Easy to download, easy to try out. Definitely worth looking at. I'm likely to use iLunascape Lite regularly on my iPhone.

Pretty good browser. Needs some work but other than that it does what you need it to. Wish the scrolling was a little bit smoother, zoom also needs to be a bit smoother. Everything else is fine.

This is working for me - peppy response, clean look (web pages actually seem crisper on this app) - I have used Opera mini (now deleted - what was the hype there?) and Atomic browser, which I still use. I like this apps UI - seems more intuitive.
