Upside is that one can easier use whatever graphics one wants, the code can be tested on desktop and it works like that on the device. Downside is that it doesn't conform to the device UI style, starting Browser for it is very slow (but only in case one doesn't have it already running) and it cannot access services on the device. - Eero
