That's good know. Thanks Shamil.

It probably has IE browser control embedded but anyway - it's a Google product. And you can use sixteen main Google apps right within "Google Search" Metro interface: Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Maps, Images, ... Also you can install Google Chrome - the link to its setup is present on MS App Store site - and use it in desktop mode as the main browser. I do use it that way. I'm using IE from time to time too on Win8 and so far I haven't seen any issues... And I have been using IE on my WinPhone 7.5 for more than an year - no problems... Thank you. -- Shamil Четверг, 13 декабря 2012, 13:20 от Hans-Christian Andersen <hans.andersen at phulse.com>: > >You can if you exit the Metro interface and run it as a desktop application.
