Anyone else Beta testing this?

It's annoying to say the least in that many pages arent supported and the software wont automatically 'correct' itself to show the pages it doesnt like, you have to click the compatability view icon.. WHICH IS REALLY BLOODY ANNOYING!!!!

other than that? seems ok the crash recovery is good..

more bumph on it:

not that I can see. Just the same old same old repackaged and with added 'bits' that they shouldve included years ago... like firefox did

I had a quick look at it a while ago and decided it looked hungrier and more intrusive than ever, so declined.
A lot of the "improvements" looked like catch-ups to others without the option to switch em off and on.
