Anyone tried this yet?

Running it on work laptop

Its very fast :shock: , entire pages you flash up in seconds, you dont even see any slight render..

So far looks pretty cool.. See hows it goes

Well, I agree its fast, remarkably quick!

But Some things just don't seem to work thus far. My works CRM doesn't work. Neither does my web app for the Intranet console.

Also I noticed last night my Outlook on the Web looked totally different.

i do like the integral Spelling check however

I was going to post this, you beat me too it Mel ;)

Yeah i've been trying it out and so far i'm pretty impressed. It's a nice clean web-browser without all the frills. Loads the pages fast and gets the job done.

To be honest I think Mozilla and Microsoft might have a problem on their hands in the very near future.

To be honest I don't like it 1/2 or even 1/3 as much as Opera. I thought that the new page would be like opera's speed dial, awesome. But instead it's this stupid history thing that's annoying. Also, I hate how it's not customizable. It needs an RSS reader.

What I do like though is the status bar in the bottom, which also is where the transfers are. It's so awesome, I wish there was something like it for other browsers. I also like the clean interface.

Maybe I'll download it next release, but probably not.

Got it at work

Anti virus server doesnt work on it neither does The site I use to monitor WAN, also theres a few glitches here and there, but isnt it BETA still?

That said... its fast as ffffffffff.. you get the idea..

Its simple its light, its got a nice drag and drop feature of your tabs, it has an anonymous mode

It feels incredibly uncumbersome to use.. If glithces are smoothed out I am converted

UInfortunateley I cannot make it defauilt browser at the minute at work at least until they are sorted.

Outlook web access is likeley to look different, it looks different on any browser thats Non IE.. open OWA on Firefox or ophera and ull also see a restricted access.

As a FF liker, I do think Chrome is considerably faster and works with windows integrated GPOs which means its allowed to work under Domain policy Unliek FF which is a total rogue there.. Although will wait and see for the full version before making full migration
