I just found this out by accident on my iPod touch. And I haven't seen this as a hint before. It's actually possible to trigger a mouseover event in the Safari browser on an iPhone or iPod touch. You just have to click and hold the link that has the mouseover effect. At first, you get a popup with the link or description. If you then release your finger, however, the mouseover effect is triggered!
It doesn't seem to work in every case, but it can be useful sometimes. For example, on websites that make use of a drop-down menu, or that give extra information in pop-ups on mouseover.
I don't know if this is new in the 1.1.3 firmware, but it's a nice detail.
