Agreed. The backspace key on the keyboard may be used to go back a page in the browser, but it often takes several tries before it works. Still, it's better than using the history.

I still haven't found a decent "forward".

4. Lots and lots of checkered patterns while scrolling...
Agreed.

5. I have a habit of opening a new window and going back to the previous page instantly(via the task switcher). All that happens is a 2-10 second delay before the page responds/scrolls again.
I haven't noticed that delay. I do find the new browser window tops itself, a behaviour I thought was to be left behind.

7. Links click(finger and stylus) but the browser doesn't seem to respond once in a while.
Agreed.

8. I like the volume control to zoom in and out...
(I don't, but go on.)

...but then I have no means to control the volume easily when playing a flash video.
Agreed.

10. The address bar gives suggestions whenever it pleases. A reboot later it seems to remember all the website I have visited before
Yes, there's something odd there. For a few days, just before I flashed to PR1.0, my N900 provided suggestions in the browser's address bar. It hadn't ever done that previously. I didn't even know it was supposed to.

Now that I've updated to PR1.0 the suggestions are gone again.

1. The pdf reader really needs kinetic scrolling.
Agreed.

2. I don't know if its relevant in every country or not. But the contacts application gives me an option to send a text msg to landlines.
Yes, that is a bit odd. I'd be happy if those entries disappeared.

1. There has to be ctrl, shift, and the symbol key on the other side of the keyboard. Its a pain trying to do lets say ctrl+a.
Those keys are sticky. Press and release "Ctrl". Press and release "a".

3. The screen could have been brighter
Yipes! Full brightness gives me sunburn.


As for the rest, WORKSFORME.
