yea, no game changer here. microB offers a superior experience by far in terms of speed, features and performance.
Can't use Google-Maps. Anyone figure out how to select text from a webpage to copy?

And how the difference between speed and peformance is defined.
The only annoying thing left here is the startup time which is irrelevant if fennec is already open. Besides the latest fennec comes rather close to microB in terms
of performance and passes by regarding features. This is based on a frequent daily use. Of course ones mileage may vary.

It still can't do the basics like open a link in a new tab or save a picture. - what are tabs for if you cannot use them?

what i dont like in both the firefox and the default browser is that the keyboard navigation keys cannot be used for clicking a specific link.
or i just dont know how to do that....

At the moment, I cannot really find a real reason to keep using it. I like the weave integration and addons are quite nice but It is just too slow and choppy compared to the MicroB!!
I am not talking about slow flash or large web pages, just the compare of load time and scrolling on a simple blog site shows the MicroB to be much faster the Fennec
As the releases continue, no doubt things will improve but as for a rating?
5/10 could do better ;-)

Howto enable flash:
1. Go to URL "about:config"
2. Set filter "plugin"
3. Set "plugin.default_plugin_diabled" and "plugin.disabled" to false
4. Restart Firefox (I'm not sure if this is necessary)

Flash playback is actually a bit better on Firefox, when I tested it.
