Laura June, The Verge:

On stage at Google I/O, Brian Rakowski, Vice President of the Chrome division at Google has just announced Chrome for iPhone and iPad. It’s something iOS users have been asking for for a very long time, and plenty of people will be happy about this news. The app will be for iOS 4.3 and higher devices, and will be available today. The app will also support Chrome sync, and looks like it’s just as full-featured as the browser which many of us know and love.

Early impressions are that this is a pretty feature-rich, solid browser. It won’t, however, have access to Apple’s Nitro JavaScript engine - the key to Safari’s “snappiness”. I’m interested to learn what people think in terms of speed.
