Quick first feelings about @Web, on N810 running Diablo:
- Address bar position is annoying. It is covering the top part of the pages, and on the first load, one has to wait until it disappears. Perhaps there is some setting that controls the time that the address bar is visible. This is bad behaviour, especially because the browser is not quick. Pages do load slowly even with fast WiFi connections, and all the time that address bar is visible.
--> Bottom of the page would be much more better place for the Address bar, because pages' main links are rarely located there
- Selecting web addresses from drop-down menu, with touch-screen qwerty, does not work.
- Some pages just do not work. For example Facebook, it loads the main page, but clicking links to Profile or Friends - they do not work! I have experiences some trouble with the N810 std browser as well, but not this bad.
- Another Facebook-related problem: if the browser is not zoomed into full screen (from N810), the Login-button can not be scrolled into view
- I understand that these problems may be partly claimed as service provider (facebook corp) problems, but SOME iop testing should be carried out with major web services, before launcing even betas.

Support.digia.com says on 2.7.2009 (https://support.digia.com/kb/article/show/?id=123&) that "There is a major update coming within the next couple of weeks.". Well, there surely would be a need for that major update, especially if someone would like to have it running on N900...
