Right so I guess we've all heard now, silverlight for win mo and symbian. Great. Lovely. I can dig that. But can we just, for a second, take a step back here. Are you going to replace PIE. Please, please say yes. Everytime I use PIE a kitten dies, largely because I find one and strangle it to try and abate the frustration. Replace PIE and make it right because I swear that as it stands, if the next generation of IPhone has gps and 3g plus im switching. (This post not brought to you by PIE BECAUSE IT STILL DOESNT WORK WITH C9 AFTER ALL THIS TIME)

Well, instead of getting all bothered and such, I just got an iPhone Smiley

FWIW, the version of PIE that ships with WM 6.1 is quite a bit better. The zooming is a bit awkward to use, but I just about always use it on the smallest setting. Most notable for me is that the scrolling performance for large pages is loads better. I don't know what exactly accounts for the better performance, but I ran both versions on the same device, so hardware wasn't a factor.
