Anyne else download this and totally disappointed? I mainly use Chrome on my PC, but it's really not cutting it on my iPad. The page rendering is terrible, and I hate the way the bookmarks are presented. The only plus is that you can sync your bookmarks and open pages between devices. Other than that, I really see no reason to not use Safari. Any other thoughts?

    Safari , Chrome, Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Chrome.............. They keep jumping at different rates. Who are we but mere users. I'm Apple across the board, hence Safari. But Chrome is always close at hand. JMO

    IE9 on MS based systems and Safari on all my Apples. I still feel that all the after marker 3rd party browsers suck. Plug-ins always crash, pages look like crap, lay-out sucks...... I have been a PC tech for about 14 years and messing with computers since 93 and always go back to the OS's built in browser. I did love Netscape tho...... :)

    Just my opinion.....

    I made a few pennies on Netscape stock.

    I used chrome for my galaxy 3 and don't like it. I like it for the pc but for phones it needs work. I really don't like any of the browsers for phones, they all sort of suck, it's more of, "what sucks less."

    I've had pretty good luck with Mozilla Firefox on my android phone. I can't use the Google one, unless I want my phone broken into pieces. I end up pissed off.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    No flash on Chrome... If it had flash, I would make it my main browser. Now I'm not a flash fanatic, and I know all things are changing over, but as of now, I need it to sign into my banking on my phone. So without flash I just use the stock Android browser

    Flash is dead. HTML 5 will rule.

    I think Flash is to big to die. Would love to see better coding and better HD.

    What pisses me off though, is that there is no successor yet if Flash is dead...

    I understand that change in inevitable, but we live in a world where Blu-Ray was expensive as he11 but worked out the kinks and got cheaper all while DVDs were still on the fore-front. Now Blu-ray is the standard, but it's backwards compatible (not only to DVDs, but to older TVs) and it is affordable...

    Don't cut Flash out of Chrome, unless every website has a seamless transition... It's just dumb
