Is Samsung working on its own mobile browser

Samsung’s Android customers get their pick of a pretty broad selection of smartphone web browsers and soon, at least according to ETNews, Samsung is looking to follow up on its own Android UI additions with its own fully-fledged mobile browser. The company is reportedly seeking out WebKit engineers to work on the project at Samsung’s Silicon Valley R&D center — where work is already underway on the Chrome mobile rival. The open-source WebKit engine already underpins not only Google’s own browser, but also its pre-ICS Android web browser — and Apple’s Safari. We got in touch with Samsung who politely told us that it “doesn’t comment on rumor or speculation.”
