My reading on this is that Dolphin is to become the default file manager while 
Konqueror will remain the default browser.  From what I understood, both will 
be installed, and Konqueror will continue to work in both realms.  I also 
read that Dolphin works better in KDE4, but have not tested it.  I personally 
use Krusader for file manager and Firefox for browser.
