Google voice on iPhone using HTML5

[Le Sage]

Hey guys,
You must have heard that Google managed (at last) to provide Google voice on iPhones, not using the standard SDK but rather using HTML5.
Though I'm wondering something : how did they get access to the microphone ? Is there any standard way to do that in HTML5 (that is already implemented in browsers I mean) ?
Is it using the <device> element ? Is this element already implemented in mobile Safari (thus WebKit nightly build perhaps) ?
I think that's a subject worth discussing about. & if it is real HTML5, then source code should be readable. (I have no iPhone, sorry, otherwise I would already have had a look).

Element, not tag.

Corrected. Still, the question remains.

I'm not sure it relates though apparently Google has rolled out usage of the video element on YouTube. Apparently they don't do this with Firefox and the only way I'd know without looking at the code is moving my mouse over the video to see if Adblock Plus will show the tab feature or not. I'm not familiar with the device element.
