Good catch. Is the "twirl" a Hildon thing?

I did not really understand how that connection with the computer works, anyone care to explain? But it sounds so awesome, do you just start your web browser at home and go to a site and when you start it on the phone it loads the same page?

I think the two browsers are connected through "Weave".

I think the big-eared fennec was a cooler mascot than the snowboarding fox.

Feature "stolen" from opera browser/operamini...

I hope that works as good as it works in operamini/opera desktop.

Hmm i don't like the fact that you have to slide in order to see the tabs and the back forward buttons. This MIGHT BE ANNOYING!! You want to see everything on the screen at ONCE!! This way it's more convenient. So every time you want to go "back," you have to slide?? Think about it! Not very convenient. IT's like doing double tasks.

Why can't they just put the back and forward button on TOP so that if you want to go back..just touch and bammm..you're back....rather than sliding to find that button. I am sure there enough room to fit the buttons.

Absolutely. A Brainstorm proposal has been brewing in my head about this and related data/state hand-off features...

He didn't show us how we select text and edit in the browser, how history works (is there thumbnails of the pages we already visited? ), if we can see multiple tabs as new windows in dashboard, if we can open a link in different tab, if we can see url of links or photos and copy them and some more.

I think swing zoom works only in built-in browser but, what about thw hardware volume keys? Many features missing from the video.

Some nice features included but I think, MicroB is a better choice and Firefox is a very good browser as a backup.
