Look at that, we tracked down Microsoft's Joe Marini here at MIX11. He's in charge of IE on Windows Phone and as a result, has the latest build of IE9 running on his phone.
He gave us a few mins of demonstration and that browser sure looks nice (see it kick other browser's butts here). No word on Silverlight/Flash yet for IE9 and same with plugins/addons, but at this point we'll be quite satisifed with just this base for our browsing needs. We also dig the "Metro styled" menus now--looks much better.

Hands on (almost) with IE9 on Windows Phone 7 [MIX11]
Does anyone notice how it's called Widnows phone 7.5?
would like to see actual forward and back buttons.
Back button is just the back arrow on the device. Forward button...while being occasionally useful, I'm betting it's not used very often.
Will pornhub finally work now? LOL!
