tear is nice but ageing. could someone, please, explain what those tear-improvements are?

as for n800 browsers:
- firefox (fennec) is nice, but sometimes too slow. it has innovative user interface (drag to show toolbar). usually it helps but sometimes the new UI does work against site design (e.g. google reader).
especially good in fennec is clever double-click to zoom!

- new opera is nice, but i expected, it would be a little faster. zooming is not smart, as in firefox. in fact, sometimes it zoomes in/out when I want to click the link.
bonus for opera is "turbo mode", that can help with reducing traffic data, if you use internet connection where you pay for data transfered.

- tear is nice and reasonably fast, probably fastest. UI is IMHO worst from the above mentioned browsers.
One feature I really dislike is you have to be carefull what to touch, if you want to drag the page. if you touch link, it will act as link.

- microb stopped working in my n800 and i don't care :-)

tear would be my favourite, if some problems would be fixed.
I also expect it would be faster, if new version with recent webkit build could be made.
