Safari annoyances

Had a few issues with safari, namely referring me to sites as a mobile user then being presented with simplified pages which don't allow proper access to the site functionality. Access from ebay to Paypal is one example. I downloaded Atomic Web browser, $1.99 seems ok lots of settings including some browser reporting options. After some fiddling it seems to do the trick at least as far as the mobile app referral goes.

Atomic also has proper tabs similar to IE and FF, much nicer than the page switching in Safari.

I've also had a lot of trouble with safari stalling, lots of reports from users out there with the same problem, as usual Apple is silent when it comes to a resolution. The stalling issue seems to have come with iOS 4.2 and above, hopefully they'll get off their collective asses and fix it.
