So it boils down to the fact that if a browser is willing to give up its identity and let the individual hardware makers use its code but add their own label to it then it will be more popular.
Don't get that... You are referring to WebKit or Opera?
WebKit. It lost its identity but gained popularity.
Don't agree with that. Two reasons :
- WebKit is Open Source (LGPG and BSD). That is primary reason for adoption
by everyone. 2. WebKit is clearly identified in User Agent strings (E.g. Nokia6303classic/2.0 (06.21) Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/420+)
Generally the browser is called 'browser' or 'web' in the phones. Only Opera is called Opera with the 'O' icon.
