Apple even creates open standards for the web. For example, Apple began with a small open source project and created WebKit, a complete open-source HTML5 rendering engine that is the heart of the Safari web browser used in all our products. WebKit has been widely adopted. Google uses it for Android’s browser, Palm uses it, Nokia uses it, and RIM (Blackberry) has announced they will use it too. Almost every smartphone web browser other than Microsoft’s uses WebKit. By making its WebKit technology open, Apple has set the standard for mobile web browsers.

So, Jobs can **** himself for this statement.

Here he is right, but I for one would rather not buy into a product line that won't have fully functional access to content until that day arrives. To each his own I guess... but don't try to lie to me Jobs.
