Well, I like how they changed the ability to enable compatibility mode.. simple click of the button and boop, page reloads in compatibility mode..

big improvement over the click the IE 7 button, close browser, go back to site, finish with site, click button, close browser, re-=open and go to different site.

Also like how you start using the search bar and all your added search providers show up under the field.. nice touch.

Also like the new safety tool button.. like the added features and the cleaned up tool bar.. much easier to use than Beta 1 and much more user friendly.. I hope that this is what makes it to Final release.

Also like the In Private browsing... Now to play with the configuration tools.
