Finally we got to see something extraordinary coming our way (Blackberry fans, users, and addicts). The new up-coming Blackberry Browser is a real improvement from what we have now a days and will make a lot of people stop looking around for other devices or even stop them from carrying 2 phones at the same time. We have some screenshots from the browsers on the new iPhone 4 and the HTC Sense (Android) when we put them to the test. Take a look at the the video here and the results from the other 2 phones and let the fight begin!

Here we have the video of the Browser on the new Blackberry 9800 (Slider) in action:

Now compare that to these screenshots from the iPhone4 (iOS4):

And the HTC Droid Incredible (Android 2.1):

If you want to test it out on your phone here are the links to the 3 tests we performed:

Hope you guys enjoyed!

Hey guys, I know everyone looking forward to seeing some more action of the new Webkit browser and my buddy is working on it, so stay tuned! But I do have a little bit of new information, not long ago RIM filed a new patent application, which you can find here. Now I don’t understand all of this so I had a buddy help break it down for me and this is how he explained it. When browsing a website with javascript or css (style sheets) it wont be displayed until these are loaded completely. RIM’s patent basically looks to make those files load earlier so the site can be displayed quicker.

Here’s a quote from their patent application:

“Therefore, there is a need for a method and system whereby a first device (e.g. a wireless handheld device or mobile station) may send a request to a second device (e.g. a wireless gateway server or other server) for response data having a higher priority than response data for an earlier request which is still transferring to the first device from the second device.”

Now heres some website logs I was sent, my friend removed a couple things as to not give anything away.

206.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET / HTTP/1.0″ 200 8944 “-” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”
68.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET /xxx.css HTTP/1.0″ 200 6851 “http://www.xxx.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”
68.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET /xxx.css HTTP/1.0″ 200 2643 “http://www.xxx.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”
68.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET /xxx.js HTTP/1.0″ 200 10721 “http://www.xxx.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”
206.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET /xxx.jpg HTTP/1.0″ 200 2059 “http://www.xxx.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”
206.xx.xxx.xxx – - “GET /xxx.jpg HTTP/1.0″ 200 678 “http://www.xxx.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (BlackBerry; U; BlackBerry 9800; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.1+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.0.91 Mobile Safari/534.1+”

So we see a couple interesting things here, first the browser identifies itself as “AppleWebKit”, I’m sure RIM will change that, and we also see that javascript and CSS files are being loaded from a different server. Both IP addresses are blackberry.net. Remember that “second device” RIM says in their patent application, well it looks like its already been implemented in their new browser. So what does all this mean to us? Well, from what I’m told more complex websites will load faster than the competition.

So that’s what I have for you for now, but we also have some very cool stuff coming up that will make Android and iPhone users jealous about our new/upcoming Blackberry Browser! Stay tuned for that one too. Before I go I want to thank my friend who sent me this and my 9800 source, “Terrible Bean”, for all the cool info he’s been sending over our way!

Please do me a huge favor and stay cool for me
