Tried it briefly last night for the first time, I like the way it styles the forms, much nicer than the square boxy ones used in the other browsers. I don't like the dark grey color of the interface much though, although I suspect that it can be skinned?

I'm not sure Tom, I use Camino on Mac for my browsing. The grey interface is hideous alright.

Did you notice the difference in the rendering speeds?

Seemed fast enough, I didn't study it big time but I heard it's supposed to be the fastest between Firefox and IE. I'll still be using Firefox as my main browser but it's good for testing out sites.

I've been trying it out this morning.

Tabbing doesn't work as smoothly as in FF

The rendering engine seems to have issues with some sites

Safari on Windows looks like a cunning ploy by Apple to increase the awareness of the iPhone's default and only browser. Clever. Is it a bit late though. iPhone is out at the end at the month in the States.

It's nice to have another browser to test on (for those of us without macs!).
