    I'm using it right now and for the most part it's really nice. Pages load really fast.

    I was using the beta of this on my Samsung Impression. It was better than the stock browser but nothing impressive. Just tried it out now and I don't like it at all. Alot of pages aren't rendered correctly. Some take forever to load. Scroll is painfully slow.

    Corinacakes: No the mobile version of this site does now work. All it gives is a menu. And it didn't prompt to the mobile version either. I had to click into it.

    I'll pass on this one.

    Tried it for five minutes and uninstalled… First test was a failure – the Google Reader mobile site. Dolphin and stock browsers display perfectly – Opera was simply a list of bulleted links. Second test was a failure - Facebook. Again, plain looking page without the formatting of even the mobile or touch site. Pages just look a lot better in the other browsers. Didn’t give it a chance beyond that. Hopefully the final version will support all page renderings and not skimp on the format. Tabbed browsing is by far the #1 requirement – multitouch, not important. If the stock browser had tabbed browsing, I'd never need an aftermarket browser again.

    How the heck do you zoom in on a page (I feel stupid for asking but I can't figure it out.)
