Well, let's give it a try then. Thanks for the heads-up, Kevin.

Well as soon as I pulled up Youtube for the first time it crashed. :|
Soooo.. Beta is definitely there for a reason. lol.

Oh come on Google, really?

I see no reason whatsoever to have this US only.

Google....6 words: Microsoft Windows Vista and Halo 2

That didn't work out so well, did it? Microsoft failed is customers on both products. If it wasn't bad enough being forced to have one to run the other. Anyway, I know what's going on. Google is hoping customers will upgrade their incompatible devices, effectively forcing users to get ICS, just to get Google Chrome on their smart phones. Business has to make money somehow, right?

It would be awesome if Android.com would recognize Bell Galaxy S II to be a Galaxy S II I9100 rather than am I9100M. Honestly, this is stupid. Us Canadian Galaxy S II owners don't get updates on Samsung Kies, and fail to meet compatibility on some apps that are compatible with the Galaxy S II in America.

"Users can even flip or swipe between an unlimited number of tabs as if holding a deck of infinite cards, each "card" a new window to the Internet."

Sounds like Opera Mobile/Mini to me... I hope it's less of a pain to navigate when you have lots of tabs open...

Chrome seems pretty buggy (crash prone) on my Transformer Prime. ...with that there doesn't seem much reason to use it...the stock ICS browser works quite well.

You *are* aware that flash is not, nor will it ever be, supported.

Works insanely well on my HP Touchpad. Love the link preview and I benched it sorta, it's faster than Dolphin, Firefox, or the built in browser. Other than flash sites, I'll be using it exclusively. Though I couldn't find a spot to redirect downloads, I assume it's using the settings from Browser, but haven't tested that yet.

Chrome Sux on my Logitech version of GooleTV it only supports flash 10.1 so no www.TNT.tv and the same issue with this version of Chrome so we have a Double sux here for me.

 

[captaincharisma]

i wish google will let me update my nexus S to ICS already

 

[viciouz2000]

I prefer dolphin browser.

They need to add flash support. I don't care if it is going away. Too many websites depend on the proprietary piece of junk. It hasn't been more than a couple of years since I saw a broken site asking me to "upgrade" to the required IE6. I expect the transition from flash will be slower.
