Is there any way to alter the application an iPhone uses to view websites so that Safari isn't opened by default?

I'm thinking it may be possible with a Jailbroken phone by editing an application's Info.plist to trick the iPhone into thinking a 3rd Party browser is Safari or using some form of openURL to handle all NSURL calls.

A: 

This is not possible on non-jailbroken phones.

And would be very difficult to implement on those that are.

Go to the Cydia app and install "Browser Changer" from BigBoss. Then go into the settings, Browser Changer, and select what ever browser you want as the default.

This is only possible with jailbroken iphones/itouches
