Apple Safari for iPhone most popular mobile browser in USA

Irish researcher StatCounter has stated in a research paper that Apple Safari has now become the most popular mobile web browser in use in the US market.

Apple Safari comes loaded in both Apple iPhone and Apple iPod Touch devices. It is capable of displaying web pages like they do on desktops.

Second position goes to browsers in Symbian OS which is found on Nokia mobile devices. Surprisingly, Microsoft Windows Mobile and Internet Explorer for mobile devices is missing from the top spot.

Globally, Symbian OS dominates Apple Safari but they remain in the top two places.

Microsoft recently said that they are soon going to release a new edition of Internet Explorer for mobile devices which would support the web pages in its full glory. It is common knowledge that people do not enjoy surfing the web on Internet Explorer on Windows Mobile devices. Opera Mobile and Opera Mini are two other alternatives on the mobile platform.
