24 Feb 09 Safari 4 Beta Out in the Open
Apple has released a new version of its famous browser. Safari 4 Beta will come with a new Javascript engine, the Nitro, which is supposed to be 4.2x faster than Safari 3. The browser will come with new features like Top Sites which shows the most visited websites in a wall of previews. It will also have full history search and you can use Cover Flow to browse through the bookmarks. Safari 4 Beta will also bring you Smart Address Field and Smart Search Field. There’s also Full Page Zoom and Tabs on Top. The new browser will work on both Mac and Windows. As for Windows, Safari 4 Beta will bring you a new look which uses Windows standard font rendering and native title bars so that Safari will better integrate into Windows XP or Vista.
Test Safari 4 Beta for yourself until the final version comes out and tell us how it feels like. Will the iPhone get a new mobile browser too?

Although claimed by Apple as fastest browser, I dont think its qiute that fast! I have used many other browsers and feel that google crome is the fastest of them all. By the way they have added new features such as “cover flow” which I like very much.
