If you're a Firefox / Iceweasel user on the tablet, then you probably want to install the Grab and Drag extension. This makes Firefox behave like the built-in browser, in that you use the stylus or your finger to move around the web page, rather than the tiny little scroll bars.

Admit it, you've tried to scroll up a webpage in Iceweasel only to find that you're selecting text.

EDIT: Here's another extension that makes things better on the tablet:
Tiny Menu

1. After you install, right click on any toolbar and choose customize.
2. Drag all items in the navigation toolbar (back/forward, address bar, etc) up into the menu bar. Click 'Done'.
3. Right click on a toolbar again, and un-select the (now empty) navigation bar.

Tada, tiny!
