Safari vs Firefox

Thats the topic I digged today,
Firefox is ready with 3.0 beta 4.
I could find a good review on http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=1470
I am still running with 2.0.0.13.
Hope all the addins will be upgraded soon.

Another news is that apple is shipping safari with iphone...

iPhone features rich HTML email and Safari — the most advanced web browser ever on a portable device. iPhone automatically syncs bookmarks from your Mac or PC. For convenient searching, Google and Yahoo! are built right in. And iPhone multitasks, so you can make a phone call while emailing a photo or surfing the web over a Wi-Fi connection.

Hmm that sounds like another monopoly case on the way,, earlier it was MS shipping IE with Windows...

From net, this is what apple has to tell about Safari,
The fastest web browser on any platform, Safari loads pages up to 1.9 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and up to 1.7 times faster than Firefox 2.
And it executes JavaScript up to 6 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and up to 4 times faster than Firefox 2. What does all that mean for you? Less time loading pages and more time enjoying them.


Safari is available for download from http://www.apple.com/safari/download/

I am still happy with my ie7. I have my original XP with upgrade support and i am very happy with security. it provides ( till now :) )
I feel Firefox still need to work those memory issues.
I use firefox jus because of the addons.

So what browser do you use?
