Unfortunately I have a lot of customers that are non technical, use IE6/7, and can't or won't use chrome frame. I wish that wasn't the case, but... I also have no data on the presence of old and busted flash plugins.<div>

<div>Do you happen to know what the figures are like for iOS? I know mobile Safari only got web sockets in 4.something (1 or 2), I'm not sure what version of the protocol it speaks either, and obviously flash isn't an option...</div>

FWIW:<br>
You can have WebSocket for IE8/9 via Flash plus <a href="https://github.com/gimite/web-socket-js" target="_blank">https://github.com/gimite/web-socket-js</a><br>
and for IE6-9 with <a href="http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/</a><br>
<br>
With a Hybi-10+/RFC6455/Hixie-76 capable WebSocket server implementation,<br>
plus above, you basically can support any relevant browser .. so is it really worth<br>
implementing SockJS server-side, redoing all the semiworking hacks that try to<br>
shoehorn bidirectional messaging into HTTP request/response?<br>
