    Hi,
    Appshopper

    I'm not the developer of this app, but I've been helping out with some of the testing and suggesting some features.

    Most other alternatives to Safari tend to have issues with launching Youtube videos, using Google reader, launching the Appstore, but this developer has taken time to fix these issues. In addition the full screen interface with buttons only displayed when you need them, gives you a much better browsing experience.

    The full list of features are

    + Full Screen browsing
    + Tabbed browsing (Define the behavior of creating a new Tab in the settings)
    + Open a link in a new Tab or directly in the current Tab
    + It stores the tabs when closed and restores them
    + Offline browsing]
    + Download and save images (just like in Safari press and hold on an image) + Screenshots
    + Themes (Classic like Safari and Black)
    + Easily set a website as your homepage
    + Send an URL to a friend
    + Open the current page in Safari
    + Create bookmarks (with folders)
    + Use multiple search engines (Google, Yahoo, Amazon, eBay, Wikipedia)
    + Activate private surfing
    + Activate the Ad‐Blocker
    + Deactivate loading of pictures
    + You can lock/unlock the rotation
    + Auto-Completion: It remembers your search terms and loaded URL's (history) for an easy reusage
    + Native iTunes, AppStore, YouTube and Google Maps application URL's are supported
    + Support for HTTP Auth protected pages

    The app itself is only $99/59p and I consider it to be one of the best apps I've purchased so far.The developer has given me 10 promo codes for use in the US store

    Yeah, Lurkers still aren't here, I snagged 67PPEJEHR736.

    Mat, I'll be sure to give you some feedback on the App, I never even knew there were other Web Browsers.

    It's not a video game and people already have a functional but possibly-not-as-good-as-this-one web browser. I work nights and always check for promo codes and no matter what time of day it is it's very hard to snap the game promos. This is touchArcade not touchApps. I'm sure the more hardcore fans of more productive apps read elsewhere :p

    look, you are obivously a bit bitter about missing out on a promo code ;) , but I posted this topic in "Iphone and Ipod Touch Apps", not the games section. If you want I can try and grab you another promo code.Jeez. Some people :)

    I took W7XFW34JKXJ9.

    I've been looking for a good fullscreen browser for a while, though the v1.1 reviews kinda scared me away from Vanilla. I'll try out 1.2 and see how it goes, thanks again.

    How well does offline browsing work? If click on a link and then press the back button does it have to reload the page (like safari) or does it save the page and show right away?
