There's an item there I'd like people to note:

Web page menu item

* Open page
* Open file
* Save as
* Save image as

This is not something that's been offered with any PalmOS browser, as far as I know. Nor with Pocket PC (although this might have changed in the past few months; I've stopped paying attention to PPC.)

One thing I'd like to also see is the ability to add FURL -- http://www.furl.net -- to a browser. In Firefox, their download adds a teeny drop-down menu to my Bookmark Bar. This is very, very handy. (Try it, if you haven't!)

Yahoo is also beta-testing a FURL-like service. What they want people to do is to download and install their entire Yahoo Menu Bar. Although I use YahooMail, I wrote and told them I wouldn't be using their FURL-like service because they are demanding too much screen real-estate.
