Freeway 5.2 available with new MobileSafari support
Softpress Systems has released Freeway 5.2, which includes new tools for building web pages for iPhone and iPod touch. Freeway is WYSIWYG website creation software that features a traditional, page-layout approach and omits the need to write any code (unless, you know, you really want to handcraft your HTML).
New in version 5.2 is the ability to create iPhone home screen icons and custom links to iPhone applications like Mail, Phone, Maps, and YouTube. Also, Freeway helps prepare QuickTime videos for playback on iPhone under a variety of network conditions.
Additionally, Softpress has published a best practices document for publishing web sites for the iPhone and iPod touch. The "Building websites for the iPhone with Freeway" document can be found on the Softpress website.
The update is free for registered users of Freeway 5 or higher. For new users, it's available in two flavors: Freeway 5 Express ($79) and Freeway 5 Pro ($249). The differences between the two versions are available here.

I love Freeway. Awesome WYSIWYG editor, and I love that there is now a "preview in browser" button on the toolbar! Most of the other updates for this version seem to be iPhone related.
here's my Freeway Express created site:

I've had a great experience too.
It took me ages to finally take the plunge and move from version 4 to version 5 in fear that it would mess up my sites.
I'm pleased to say, though, that the transition has been completely trouble free. Some really nice new visual effects for the text and the new version is also a lot more stable than the old version 4 I was using.
This is my freeway 5 pro site:
