A reluctant thumbs down. I'm actually going to downgrade back to OS2007 this evening. I was eagerly anticipating this new release, and I have to credit what a refreshing upgrade it is with regard to visual prettiness, streaming media, and overall system responsiveness. But the new browser is, in my experience, exceptionally slower than OS2007 Opera in all operations (even zooming in), across a variety of web pages. Add to that a point previously made on this thread about the thumbpad needing extra coaxing to appear, and the web browser experience (which enables 90% of my use of the Internet Tablet) is a big step down in the new OS for me. If I could somehow get Opera on OS2008, I'd be happy and probably get over the tweaked touch-responsiveness of the entire system, but as it stands I'm shuffling back to OS2007.
