You have my vote for tabbed browsing and some extra preferences, including extra security & cleaning features.
Otherwise pretty fast, but not as fast as Chimera IMHO. Nice beta!! (actually better than some hum hum official released stuff in recent history)

Love this browser! Definitely faster than Chimera. Lack of tabbed browsing won't ruin it for me...but other things like hotmail not working need to be fixed.
Make sure you report all bugs. It couldn't be easier and you can even send a snapshot of the page you're on along with the link. Works right in the browser - doesn't even need email to do it!

I'd like to chime in with some praise for this browser. It's, without question, faster than any of the other browsers I've sampled on OSX. I'm really happy with the elegance and simplicity of it.
My only gripe is that I'd like the mouse cursor to disappear when I'm using the keyboard to scroll. I got used to it in explorer and now it's a thorn in my side.

i agree with a majority of the comments here. /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
definitely faster than chimera, or any other os x browser i've tried. especially in terms of interface.. going back and forward between pages is instant, and my typing isn't slowed down in text fields. oh and the spell check is nice too.
javascript speed greatly improved over any of the gecko browsers! i'm very pleased with that.
but i'm along with the people who believe it needs tabbed browsing. it's just become so convenient for me after using chimera for so long. and a throbber would be nice as well. and auto-complete/password storage. but hey.. it's beta, and still a mighty fine browser in it's original state.
btw how the heck did people get the reply link to become active in these forums with safari? it wont work at all for me. and i'm beginning to believe it's a problem with these forums rather than the browser, as i remember a few people mentioning it happening in chimera too...
