On the real estate side of things, though, there were a few disappointments. I went to Trulia, Zillow, and Realtor.com. All three had some rendering issues from a missing MAP to elements on web pages covering each other (making filling out a search impossible.) One issue is that one of the sites has their map via Flash, which isn’t yet supported on the iPhone. I visited some of the sites on Safari and Mac and Windows and didn’t have the same rendering issues, but did still have the same missing non-flash map elements. The rendering issue I saw on the iPhone could be a bug in that version that will hopefully be corrected soon. Don’t get me wrong, they were still mostly usable, but it wasn’t as clean an experience as most of the non-real estate sites I’ve visited. It could just be luck on my choices either way.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We’re not ready to make the leap yet, but it seem clear that this device — or a near-term competitor — is inches and hours away from shipping my laptop off to the Museum of Computer History.
