IMO mobile browsers are way behind in any sort of privacy options compared to desktop browsers (and they arent very good in general). Hopefully, people will start realizing this and start clamoring for better privacy which would be even more relevant given the geolocation implications. Right now, I can see that Palm sends every app start/stop event along with a whole slew of other events back to a Palm website and I'm sure Apple does the same. It would be interesting to measure how much battery life increases when smartphones are not forced to report large amounts of usage information back to the manufacturer.
