Perfectly! 

You have to realize though, that "Ajax" or "Web 2.0" are not real standards, 
not even complete de-facto standards, and websites like GMail that heavily 
employ such technologies are extremely non-standard. A typical google or 
yahoo application starts like this:

if (firefox)
   firefox_version();
else if (IE)
   IE_version();
else
   sucky_version();

Unless we implement all features and all bugs of one of those browsers and lie 
to the web-site about who we are, we will always get the sucky version. 
Typically pretending to be safari or firefox, will make konqueror work much 
better on such sites though, as a buggy firefox version of those websites are 
better than their sucky versions.
