"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."

Besides that, Safari for Windows have terrible problems with accents. By using accents in web forms, it just ignores everything you wrote after the accent... not just forms, but and coping to clipboard to. Also, it didn't properly converted the line breaks to the correct (in Windows), leaving you with a bunch of characters to clean up...
But as far as I know, most of the problems are gone in the current versions of Safari for Windows.
I do use it from time to time to check some links when my Opera9 or Firefox3 windows are too populated... Or when Flash video playback bug (just stop after some seconds, have to click the seek bar all the time to continue the playback for some more seconds... it just sucks) prevents me from watching them in my browsers.
