I'm finding the Fennec nightlies pretty sweet although scrolling felt a bit off and sluggish compared to microB. Increased browser.ui.kinetic.updateInterval which helped a lot. I bet a few more tweaks to the scrolling settings and it'd be perfect.

When fennec has working addons it's really going to kick some ***.

MicroB. Definitely. Firefox is cool, has tabs etc. but it is just a bit too slow. The biggest plus is Mozilla Weave Sync, and the biggest minus is the zoom implementation.

The zoom in MicroB just rocks. And it's fast enough all right. Just my two cent.

Firefox does have quite a few working add-ons. The Fennec developer builds don't work with all of them though. Some.

although i see the potential for fennec, mozilla needs to focus improving it (zooming, hover mode, FLASH, & STABILITY) first before jumping to the android and winmo wagon to create a version for them too. if microB can do it, why can't the fennec do it?

microB for me since you can use the virtual keyboard better (dunno why it keeps on popping to fennec) and seems more responsive to the touch commands...

Nice tip. I hadn't tried that one. Increased from the default 30 to 60 and it did seem to help.
