The latest NetApplications figures confirm iPhone browsing marketshare is on a strong upward trend since the release of iPhone 3G.

The web monitoring firm has also confirmed some interesting trends to use, for example, iPhone usage on the weekends sees a 50-70 per cent spike, 9to5Mac claims.

"The release of the iPhone 3G has brought large gains in web browsing share. Prior to the launch iPhone usage share had leveled off, but has since resumed its upward trend," NetApplications explains.

The firm last year also remarked on the point at which web browsing on the iPhone exceeded the web browsing on all Windows Mobile devices combined.

The simple reason for this, is that you have an almost perfect web browser that you normally get on your desktop.

I've tried browsing the web on Symbian phones, and it's clearly not even worth the bother.
