The current S60 WebKit open source code base, that is not in a produce yet,
does allow you to turn on tab navigation. By doing so, the mouse pointer is not
shown. The joystick can be used to move through the tab-able links, etc.
This is acheived by adding the following markup to the document:
<meta name="navigation" content="tabbed">

You could change the links to something else, eg divs, and as they are not
clickable, then the pointer wouldn't change when you go over them.
