Robert,
1) when you say IE is a bit slow please give examples and what do you
mean slow?
2) the URL is what I've said to others, you have your verbosity set to
speak tool tips. IE puts up a tooltip of the URL and Window-Eyes is
doing what it was told to do, speak the tool tip. Turn this off under
General / Other / Speak Tooltips. Again, we've turned this off in our
factory IE sets but the upgrade doesn't replace your active sets.
3) Top and bottom have been removed as lines of their own. We certainly
won't bring that back. But we could speak "top" and re-read the top
line if you up arrow from the top and the same when down arrowing from
the bottom.
4) Place markers, as explained in the readme, this is not available in
this version.
5) shift-arrows for selection will come but at this point I can't
guarantee for the final 9.0 release.

A couple more observations about the beta.
I went over to Internet Explorer 11 and, yes, navigation is still a
bit slow. I am running win7x64, with a quad core CPU and 8 gb ram.
When opening a new link in Explorer, say by pressing enter, you hear
the page address. So you press enter on a link, here a long address
and then the page loads, except you have to sit through listening to
the address before you find out page information such as how many
links, headings, etc. are on the page. This is not a beta issue; I
noticed it in other versions of W E as well.
Top and bottom are no longer spoken when arrowing in browse mode. This
should be returned.
The place marker keys in internet explorer just ding, instead of doing
anything.
I think the normal way of selecting text in browse mode should be used
as well as the f8 thing. I was reading an e mail in windows mail (not
windows live, just to clarify) and hitting shift down arrow to select
a line is certainly faster than f8, move to end, f8 again. Both
options should be present.
