Blackberry phones might get decent web browser in the future

My Blackberry 8900 is quickly becoming a text-only device as it is inferior to the iPhone or Android devices for virtually everything but mail and that rare advantage won’t last forever. Blackberry knows it (I hope they do), and they are hiring WebKit* developers to assemble the browsing experience better (the job description was spotted in LinkedIn). Today, it is sluggish and some sites (like Yahoo Finance won’t even load). I hope that Blackberry changes that soon.

*WebKit is an open source browser engine upon which many browsers are built on, including the iPhone’s and the Palm Pre’s.
