flop ya mac out

Checking out the features of the upcoming OS X Leopard on my iPhone this morning whilst still in bed. Went to open up another page from a link using the great Open In New Tab bookmark and got an unexpected alert message.

It went something like, “You cannot open more than eight pages in Safari. Go use a proper computer to get the most full Internet browsing experience”.

Well i didn’t know there was such a restriction. And why?

Does it slow down Safari if you have too many pages open at once? Does it make Safari or even the whole iPhone unstable?

Perhaps the number eight is simply Steve Jobs favourite number. Or the number of days one of Steve Jobs weeks contains.
