"You can pull up the web site on the iPhone. But you'll have to zoom in to ensure that you click the correct link for the log in or any other link. It's a bit aggravating having to zoom in and out on the browser to be able to read and/or click the correct links."

Don't you have to zoom in to most pages, given that, IMHO, most sites aren't optimised for mobile devices? <joke>Who'd have thought the Apple marketing machine would mislead us into thinking their mobile browsing experience was as smooth as shown on TV!</joke>. For me a tap of the screen zooms in (percentage zoom is configurable of course) and the page is rendered so that I can easily read the text should I need to. Clicking links/voting isn't a problem even when I'm not zoomed in.

"As for other browsers on the iPhone, you'll have to jailbreak it in order to get something else."

I'm sure Opera is available for the iPhone without jailbreak. For me this is another win for the Android platform. Install what you like, it's your device.

For the record, I'm using Cyanogem mod. Heck, someone has even ported Android to the iphone.

Update: added "without jailbreak".
