Good job on this one.
A few points. Some which have been hit already by prior posts, but I'd like to reiterate. Right now you're in marketing mode. So:
1. The website really needs the focus right now. My first point of confusion was the image. Naturally, our eyes are going to navigate to that, but it doesn't tell me anything. I'm confused looking at it. What is this? Do I really have to read the blocks below it to figure out what it is? I've skimmed the titles, but I'm not interested in reading all that right now... (That's my train of thought)
I would throw in a simple script to cycle through some images. Include some text explaining some of the core features.
2. What does this do that the other browsers don't? Some of this will be explained once point 1 is resolved. Past that, I would add more images + text below it.
Don't just tell me, show me. I might not have the time to read through a block of text. If you can describe epic in a picture, do it.
3. The Icon. There are people who will simply refuse to buy an app because of the icon. Sad, but true. This is how people discover you. They will see a list of icons in their search and find the prettiest one to tap.
You need something simple, slick and polished. Right now I feel like it belongs on a childrens e-book.
4. "You must be at least 17 years old" -- Really?
5. Consistancy. Pet-peeve of mine, but why is your skin different between the iPhone/iPad version? The iPad skin is solid. I'd subclass those iPhone components and give it the same look-and-feel.
6. I would definitely milk the social networking bit. I can't count how many times I've shared links and images from a page.
7. 'firmware 3.2' should just probably be 'iOS 3.2 or later.'
All opinions of course. Take what you will. All in all, great work. I'm not sold primarily because the core browser does a good enough job, but I can be convinced.

I'll have a screencast replace the current image asap. 3) The icon. Some people really like it, some hate it with a passion. I'll come up with a new (hopefully) better one. 4) That's Apple's requirements. All apps that pull data from the internet have to specify a 17-year-old age restriction. There's nothing I can do about that 5) I'm not sure about that. Both the iPad/iPhone version use default OS' skins (gray on iPad & blue on iPhone)
