If it simply loads your homepage without crashing, it will be 100x better than their last beta.

This is good, but I would like to see Opera make it to see the shows as well, just to have more browsers for us to choose from. Killer, how does it stack against the stock browser? I'm thinking about getting an Android phone in the nearby future (Droid X).

The new firefox beta is decent at best. Loads kind of slow and does not support flash video or ad blocks (as stated by a poster) above. So far looks like you will need an android phone with at least a 1ghz processor for it to work. Needs alot of work as with froyo 2.2 flash is supported in dolphin and the stock browser. In my opinion the stock browser is much better at this point.

to burn or not to burn that is the question
