Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Browser for iPads

It's a local setup and not too impressive from what I can see. It does have MLS listings but every realtor in this country has that.

I went to the mris site and they have an iPad app, so maybe a user issue. I'm not American but I assume mris is large?

I dunno mate. I know apple is not compliant with wifi, not ratified by the wifi alliance or with smb, but I've had no issues with safari

Are they sending compliant code? Ime Safari always tenders complaint code very well.

I do use Zillow, but MRIS sends much more detailed listings. Pretty much the same as I see as an agent, with a few pieces of information withheld.

Have you tried using Zillow? It's easy to send a listing from the app to a potential buyer.

IMHO Safari is worthless. It is so locked down that many sites don't show up at all. Also, another problem with Apple mobile devices is that without jail-breaking the device you cannot change the default browser to something like Chrome. It kills me as a real estate agent as when I send listings to potential clients, they can't see those listings unless they go through ridiculous copying of the ling and pasting in a sane browser to view them. Most people are not that savvy that they can do that. I have no idea how many clients never get to see the listings I am trying to send to them to evaluate.

Apple is very arrogant and they want to control everything. They could have it all if they would compromise a bit and let people have some flexibility. Personally I think the Apple product line can't be beat for quality, but the fact that so much cannot be adjusted, it makes it unusable in many cases.

Good luck to all of us if this is the future of computing.

All I know is many links seem dead on Safari but respond on Mercury.

All browsers use the same engine as safari on iPads.

For me Safari is really bad, links don't work gave the time. My friend told me about Mercury. There is a free copy and a pro copy in the App Store. Based on my friends recommendation I bought the pro copy for 99¢. It much better.
