A desktop rendering engine, OK I love that. Let the plug ins arrive!

But why th did they have to think "desktop" with regard to the interface.
A modern browser needs tabs? Tabs are way out of line here in Maemo.
They should be optional.

Intuitive 2 finger touch operation as with MicroB is not there!
The sliding move will always be more difficult.
What a crap interface!

I meant it was really really slow and laggy before, now the operations is smoother.

Plus I think the interface is better than microb:

1) Side tabs/options is better because I you need to switch to window mode to get to options so its much quicker in fennec.

2) The tabs are a good idea - have 3 or more tabs open in microb just means lots of windows open. I prefer tabs to be honest.

Whats 2 finger scrolling?

At least we have a choice now! If there was no fennec you wouldn't be complaining!

Three browsers in total (Opera, Microb and fennec), is plenty.
