Feel sorry for the guys at Omni but Safari is miles superior. IE is not going to be used anymore either after sfari handled even barclays online banking many times faster.
I also wish that when you clicked the address bar it would highlight the whole address so you can type a new one without either triple clicking or backspacing to erase the old address before enter the new one. This make sense?

Thanks for the tip, KidRed. I obviously haven't spent enough time with the brushed metal generation of apps.
I was trying to figure out why Safari didn't import my IE bookmarks. Then I realized that I no longer have IE bookmarks because I never use IE anymore. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />
Hmm.... I thought so, too, first, 'cause it's the same in IE, and that works there, too, for me. BUT: I'm using Swiss keylayout, and in IE Command-Option-n (to get tilde) works, but not so in Safari. In Safari this shortcut creates a new folder for bookmarks... Any ideas?
<strong>Liked it but still need work. It needs IE's autofill and Chimera's Keychain access. If it gets those, we'll see.</strong><hr></blockquote>
It has keychain access. So it;s only missing autofill, downlaod manager with open/save dialog, better spell check, and let linked pop up windows open. Otherwsie, it rocks!

Use the same shortcut as in the rest of Mac OS X: Cmd-< (Cmd-> cycles the other way).

It does. Just click on the icon next to the URL. It highlights the whole thing. Is that what you were lookin' for?
i hope these are all suggestions to final versions, sounds like complaints that it doent have, just a reminder this is beta...hope apple is reading this...GOOD JOB
I'm using it to view all of the forum activity here at AI, just cause it moves like a raped ape even on dial-up. I like the fact that it's so simple, and can't help but feel that its design principles are founded on a future destiny of being used in something smaller and tablet-like.
Can you imagine what this will be like by the time release 3.0 evolves. More functionality + this rendering speed = Yummmy!

Can you describe how you got keychain access to work? Maybe I'm blind, but I'm missing it...

Hitting the Tab key works too. No mouse needed
Edit: Whoops! It doesn't work so well if there are a lot of text entry fields on the web page. Oh well

Renders beautifully on every site I've been to.
Best MW in ages.

My Explorer favorites were automatically imported by Safari. Look at the bottom of the bookmark window.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Mine were too.

Otherwise: Great app, great keynote!!!
<strong>I second that. Another thing I noticed: there's no shortcut for window cycling, that really annoys me, I use it all the time in IE.

YES! Thanks, works great and it's a really convenient one-handed one.
I like certain things from Chimera but this is a great product with serious hope for the future.
Great work to the developers over at Apple.
