Forgive me if this is a repost, but I just noticed that Mark Finkle posted an update on Fennec this afternoon.

Fennec 0.4, the M4 milestone, wrapped up last week
He also provided a link to installation instructions that are basic enough for even me to handle

You basically just have to add a new repository and then click on "Fennec".

Installation Instructions
Release Notes

I'll going to give it a go when I get home tonight.

It looks like ~9.7MB to me, but like I said I haven't downloaded it yet.

yep, spotted that.

hmm, seems that it needs a N810 or a N800 with a bluetooth keyboard to get url entry. inscreen keyboard do not seem to work (didnt test full screen keyboard tho).

also, the scrolling is a bit strange. one have to stop before more of the page shows...

It does say in releases notes you need Nokia n810

Note: M4 supports the Maemo diablo distribution, but only use this if you have diablo installed on your n810.

They removed kinetic scroll in this new version. Still crashes after a couple of minutes/pages.
