Apple "The ability to download and immediately render non-standard web fonts is just one of several advancements Apple has planned for Safari 3.1, a small but significant update to its share-gaining web browser for both the Mac and Windows PCs. The release, which underwent private testing this week, will tie in a number of other enhancements, most of which have been under constant development as part of the company's WebKit open source application framework since last fall. They aim to provide Web developers a means of writing more dynamic and customizable web pages and iPhone apps, which will in turn provide surfers with a more feature-rich and enjoyable experience."

I'm Loving It.
The competitors are so blazingly far ahead of Microsoft, it sad watching Microsoft flounder around with X-ENABLE-LOCK-IN metas.

The standards have been around for so long now, dragging one's heels isn't good enough anymore, the web has finally made it onto mobile devices in the right format, and Microsoft are thankfully, not the ones controlling the forward motion now.
