OK, I've downloaded it to take a look, but could someone explain to me what the big deal is here?
On my Mac I always have an alternative browser around, on the basis that if a site doesn't work well in Webkit, it might display well in Gecko or vice versa: for my job, f'r example, I use several sites that use weird TTF fonts that Gecko browsers handle more gracefully than Webkit.
But this strikes me as being just like Dolphin: an alternative skin around Webkit. The actual site you're looking at doesn't look different ...
So, could people be a little bit more specific rather than just going "Oh WOW"?
Someone mentioned syncing bookmarks. Yes, and Safari syncs bookmarks over iCloud. How is this better?
Synced passwords sounds like a security risk to me, but OK I can see a point there.
Voice dictation - please tell us more. How does it actually work for you? For the record, I'm getting a lot of "Connection to speech servers failed" but that could just be my crappy connection, so we won't blame it on the browser. When it works, yes, I get it, whatever I say gets passed on as a google search. Is that it? Or am I missing something here? It takes so long to send my speech to google and decode that I could have typed it out five times.
No, I'm not trolling here. I'm trying hard to see the advantage here and I'm not seeing it. If you were already sold on Chrome on another platform, then yes, OK, it gives you interoperability. No problem.
But if you are a non-Chrome user on Mac/PC, is there any reason to keep it around on the iPad? Convince me.
