    I've been running the beta on my toshiba tg01 for a few weeks, it's very nice. Can't wait for a final release on winmo, the beta is much better than IE/Opera

    Looking forward to this on WinMo... had a go with an very early beta which was rubbish - it loaded something but I have no idea what and wasn't a web page at all.

    It will have to be good to beat Opera though.

    Huh - they snuck that out sans fanfare. I was in two minds as to whether I should get the N900 or the Motorola Milestone, and ended up with the Milestone as I didn't think the N900 was available yet.

    Not to excited about it. The default browser on the N900 is firefox based already and is more than adequate. It has flash, javascript, and firefox addons can be ported to it easily (I have adblock plus and greasemonkey installed). I tried the Fennec beta on the n810 and it was unbelievably slow, but I imagine it has changed since then.
