One of the crazy things I discovered is that Safari is WAY faster (5 to 10 times faster) than IE when it comes to loading our company Sharepoint site. That's just got to be embarrassing for the MS folks. Granted, not every feature works (e.g. datasheet view for tables) but those features don't work in Firefox either. Hopefully the mobile platform dominance causes Safari to make gains on screens larger than 3 inches as well.
