[Maemo 5] Google Chromium web browser
For those who have tried android phones before, is the web-browser (google chrome? ) open source? if yes it would be cool if the source could be downloaded and ported to the N900. Although i love firefox my experience with google chrome on Ubuntu has shown that webkit is the way to go when it browsing the web. Compared to gecko based browsers webkit has better rendering speed (esp which java script laden sites like google reader etc) and their are lighter. It be awesome if google chrome can be ported to the N900

Re: google chrome on N900?
Personally, I do not like Google Chrome because it lacks proper security compared with firefox.

I would like to see a chromium port for the N900 as well. It has a wonderfully compliant renderer, is pushing web standards, and has a wonderful Javascript engine that compiles to native ARM code (no bytecode here folks! read: FAST).
As I understand, the internal timer is quite fast, which may makes chromium less ideal for mobile device, though I suspect there are many considerations when moving from a desktop browser to a phone! }:^)~ |
