I find myself using more and more all the time. Almost time to make it my default browser again I think.

 

[Faybert]

I think it's a bit raw yet, it has a good road yet to be able to compete with Opera and Chrome, one of the things I like about it is the level of customization, especially in appearance, it's amazing.

It is indeed a very well built browser.

Maybe one day we could see a mobile version. No rush of course.

True but it has a lot of development so fingers crossed it stays that way and ends up a great browser. I for one will continue to follow the development of this browser.

Mobile android browser is currently in the works

I have no doubt that it will be a good browser, especially when adding sync, is one of the things missing.

Sync would be a great feature and I am assured it is coming very soon.

Sweet!! Thanks man.

 

[kev216]

Sync would be a great feature and I am assured it is coming very soon.

About 3 of the 9 initial sync features are already working very good internally according to the alpha testers. Normally sync will be available in the snapshots before the end of the year.

Yup, totally agree. We need this level of customization in Android browers. Also text wrap is a must.
And with sync, it will be a complete package.
