It's a browser, more or less. No adblock, no custom CSS, no RSS support, won't run my favorite (elderly) Java applet. Fails less at importing bookmarks than early Safari, at least. Stretchy text boxes is a nice gimmick, but not something I felt any great need for, and I'm not sure what a "Web app" is for.

More worryingly, it seems to block some or all access to the web for other browsers open at the same time; I've tried this with both Opera and Firefox, under Vista.

And, of course, it's only available for Windows. Time will tell how many of these limitations go away eventually; it's only a beta, after all. For now, I'm sticking with Firefox.
