Is there anything like this happening in the gecko / xulrunner camp?

The ARM JIT support in WebKit is young. I'll probably try it when there's time, but from what I understand there's about 15% speedup which isn't that much.

You seem to forget that this is not a rendering speedup.

its impossible to use more than one window in s60, on the older ones anyway.
i love browsing my 6120 on the go, and even used my n80 ahead of my PC. then i got the n800, which took over, a cross-over between mobile and PC, which is why its so great

I have been worried about fennec's performance since I tried the beta version, I hope they work them out. While I was very surprised at how well Tear beta worked.

I don't know if this is a webkit feature, or if this Google-specific, but I totally fell in love with the fit-to-width feature on my G1. Compared to microb's crappy implementation, this one works really well for most websites.
I really hope Maemo 5 will have a better browser.

Yes, as long it works with standard features, which means:
- support of cookies on local webpages (file:/// URL) which does NOT work on the beta webkit version of the N810 browser and not on the standard 5800 browser, but Safari (and all other browsers) does support this
- changeable user agent: the builtin browser of phones have a hardcoded mobile user agent which does not allow viewing some full webpages. Luckily the N810 MicroB can change it and opens even full websites by default.
That is why I hate browsers on phones: they are able to show full webpages, but the user agent cripples them.
