just for small screen or what??
I use it on my Asus Transformer instead of the stock browser. The last pass plug in makes it a win.
i just downloaded the beta 4 like two hours ago, lol sweet!!
This upgrade is the shit. This really sets itself as the best browser on android. It is soooo smooth, and makes this site actually useable(besides the annoying pop up about your app!!!!)

This is perfect for the B&N Nook Color. I have been using the Dolphin HD browser on mine since almost day one.
This one is even better. Great work.
No Firefox or Chrome desktop bookmark support = no download. I HAVE to have desktop/phone bookmark syncing. Even though Firefox’s Android browser is a steaming pile of crap, I still use it as my main browser on my phone … simply because it syncs by bookmarks, back and forth between my phone and desktops. This is a must have feature for my phone browser now.
Why have Dolphin and Androids default browser not added this feature yet!?
the honeycomb default browser on my xoom syncs my chrome bookmarks i believe
Try Maxthon…pretty decent Android offering, and they have a profile syncing system between their desktop and mobile versions.
How do I get the tap to zoom or pinch zoom to work again? Dinc
