I agree, some pages appear so small it is impossible to get the cursor in text fields.

In most cases, however, I have been able to go around the problem by magnifying the problematic web page. And by magnifying I mean putting two fingers close to each other on screen and then slowly dragging fingers apart while keeping them in touch with the screen. Not an ideal solution and unfortunately not possible on all pages but keeps you going until improvement is available.

I don't know if this is just me but for me it has felt like the phone has somehow learned my most used text boxes and has in time started to react better. On new pages it is close to impossible to get the cursor and keyboard to appear, on familiar pages it feels a lot easier. This can be just wishful thinking.
