We do get the Browser for S60 as a separate sis. file!

"I’m looking forward to the browser release which should arrive within the next 1 month. Apparently, the user voices have been heard and the browser will be pulled out from the FP updates so we’ll all be able to take advantage of the progress that’s been made without having to drop some serious dough on a new phone — just to take advantage of the browser…"

It seems that the initiative taken by the people at the Web Browser for S60 Blog has borne fruit.

This is great news! I'm not sure if it's a good business decision, however, because one of the reason why I was thinking about buying the new Nokia N95, was to get the new version of the browser. Now I don't have to, because I can install the sis. file directly to my N73! I think there are other people (quite a many) who think the same.

Take a look on the new features here. They include:

Best of both words: Full Web browser and a WAP-browser in the same application.
Floating (!) Toolbar to enable easy access to frequently used features.
Widescreen mode for every device!
Autocomplete and password manager!
Improved Web Feeds (alltough I remain sceptical if these built-in RRS readers can ever match Google Reader).
There should be better Ajax-support as well.

Bubbling under are some nice new features as: Web pages can be saved for off-line browsing, Flash Lite 2 support and Favicons (you can save the Web address with its icon for easy identification=image-bookmarks?).

I found Jonathan's news via the Nokia Blog.
