Internet Explorer 9 Beta

IE9

Internet explorer 9 is expected to be released sometime in September (beta version). Better performance and improved Acid3 test scores are expected.

Microsoft has been delivering developer preview versions of IE9 every eight weeks since the product was announced at MIX10 in March. The product enables developers to use the same CSS, HTML and other web technologies to take advantage of PC hardware. The most recent preview added support for W3C standards including HTML5 <audio>, <video> and <canvas> elements, the Web Open Font Format (WOFF) and many other new and improved capabilities.

The preview has been downloaded by 2 million users and over 16 million page views to the IE Test Drive Site have been made.

Developers should download the latest Platform Preview. Once you download, check out the speed demos and HTML demos on the Test Drive Page.
