I don't understand why Apple would *not* want these third party browsers to be able to take advantage of the smooth scrolling technology integrated into Safari. Apple doesn't make any money off Safari - it already comes with the iOS software for "free".
However, Apple makes $$$$$ - 30% of all sales of all third party apps. The more Apple supports the third party developers, the more people will want to buy the product and the more Apple will make. Isn't it really all about money anyway for Apple?
I love Apple products, but some of their policies/practices just leave me scratching my head with confusion.
I just don't get it.....
