Just installed it, not loving it. Definitely gonna wait until it gets to a more polished state. In the mean time sticking with my other beta browser Skyfire. The only thing I am certainly not using is Pocket Internet explorer.

You know, Im not sure if the company liked me or what because I got the link last Friday night, before engadget mobile had even posted that people were starting to get the betas. I wish I could send everyone a copy of the cab file, but it initially makes you register based on e-mail and mobile telephone number. So short of me sending along my e-mail, telephone number, and commonly used password Its pretty much locked down.

That being said when you do get it its pretty much everything that it is chocked up to be. I didn't quite realize that I was one of the few lucky ones to receive it. That being said I was contemplating posting up a great video of it in use. The zoom is fast, the loading is faster then safari over edge, and beautiful over 3g (HSDPA) I am testing this on a Tytn II, and the ability to stream youtube or any other flash animations is spectacular. This is really the browser to get excited about.
