excuse as to why things dont work. "Oh, its still in beta".

"... before final release..." - I wouldn't hold my breath on
that one. GMail that's been out for I believe at least 4 years is still
"beta." No, it is not really beta by my definition, but either Google
has forgotten to update the graphic, or more likely they never plan to
come out of beta. And it still lacks quite a bit of functionality
compare to many mature mail apps (not, however, to belittle the good
features that they have that others lack). Same goes for many other
offerings: It seems like they roll out a promising app, but it remains
as such with only minor incremental updates.
But with the browser's missing functionality will probably be
plugged up by 3rd party just like FF has...

If you call 2 years ago "just released"...then yes it
was just released. It was released fall of 2006. And I found Chrome to
be no faster than IE8, add in the lack of RSS features and it is DOA in
my opinion. That said, I'm certain that Google will add additional
features before final release, but their feature set right now is really
lacking.

Except that it's about 20x as fast and uses less than
1/2 the memory. Did
anyone notice the "Task Manager" in Chrome? That's what
I call going for
the jugular.
The more Microsoft tries to prove that they "get it" the
further they fall
behind. Wasn't IE7 just released? Was that just a
gigantic "Oops" or
another MS fart into the wind?
