[HEXUS]

Long and winding road to final version continues with more bug fixes.

If anyone has installed this latest beta, can you check if CTRL+E moves your cursor to the search bar or still brings up the half baked panorama (nice idea, poor execution).

[BullDogg]

It brings up Panorama, I'm afraid.

[RedFlames]

They have changed it to Shift>Ctrl>E, so it should be in the next beta [and in the nightlies as of 17/01].

[cordas]

Yeah ctrl-e still does nothing useful.

This beta does load quicker and generally feels snappier however I am noticing some problems with handling video, iplayer in particular seems to be unhappy :-(

Still not that overly impressed enough with FF4 to move back to FireFox, looking more and more like a Chrome clone so may as well stick with Chrome/Iron.
