>Is it also a webscraper that can pull data out of a page for me?

No, Phantom will only recreate the page as it would look like to a human user (i.e. after all javascript is parsed and executed). It will not help you parse or slice the page - you would have to do that part programatically with other dom-parsing tools.

Sorry. I guess you're right. As a programmer, both of those look the same to me.
