According to VentureBeat, the browser runs on iPad and iPhone as a separate standalone browser and as an extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, with support for Android and Windows Phone coming soon. It actually appears to bring some innovation to mobile search, displaying results and queries on the same page for more productive navigation between the two."

Will this new browser only be available in Germany, Italy, Japan, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, and Finland?

I'm super excited that this relevant and forward thinking company is releasing a browser that will make me forget about using any other browser.
