It's a bit annoying to have to scroll all the way to the top of a page to access forward/backward/and enter a new url, but this isn't too bad considering half the time I was clicking the wrong thing in microB and then I'd have to wait for it to reload a whole new page I never meant for it to go to.

In the end, it will need some tweaking, but it's a great start.
totally agreed. I love firefox (desktop version) lol. Though it consume a lot of memory but it can be done by Windows and RAM upgrade. But for mobile device is has to be more optimised before it can be a stand alone browser. Mobile Device has limited RAM and cannot upgrade like the desktop. That is why right now it is not a good contender in my book that is. I'll stick with microB for now. It's more agile but like you said It did missed my clicks many times. MicroB is bad at that and crashing alot lately. But it is our only hope right now.
