HP's WebOS is a mobile operating system based on a Linux kernel, and the first pieces of this operating system were released to developers in the open source community a few weeks ago. HP has also unveiled the open source Isis browser for the WebOS. Fred Patton, editor-in-chief of the HP webOS Developer Portal, announced the news: "With the power of the components released today, a developer can create an immersive user environment that can be built on any Web platform." According to Fred, Isis is "extremely responsive" in benchmark tests compared with other general-purpose browsers, because of its fast rendering and JavaScript execution.
Isis offers extensive support for the HTML5 and CSS3 standards, Patton said, as well as for Adobe Flash and other Netscape Plug-in API (NPAPI) plugins. The company said the Isis browser was compatible with HP TouchPad devices running webOS 3.0.5.
