Just did a little Googling and found this HTML5 comparison: http://html5test.com/compare/browser/wp80/wp75/ios60.html

WP 7.5 is current devices, WP 8 is the upcoming devices (to be launched late October) and obviously iOS 6 is coming out soon'ish. So, though the WP 8 browser has plenty to catchup on vs iOS 6 for some features, it's still much much better than WP 7.5.

And apparently they announced today that there's going to be a Windows Phone 8 preview SDK out on Sept 12th. So if you're running Windows, you can download and try it out yourself.

Thanks for that- very interesting because IE seems to have parity on the desktop- MS must be really working hard.
