These are just mock up images, not builds or anything. Still, I like the direction they're thinking of going, taking a nod from Chrome. I love the combo Stop/Refresh/Go button and, most especially, the inclusion of search in the address bar. Hopefully with that major release they'll have streamlined memory usage.

I have version 3 and have plug ins that do all this shit already. I don't get it.

The point is integration. If these theme and layout aspects are native to the interface, you do not need to bloat the application up with plugins to achieve it.

Look awesome but I don't like a few things that can probably be changed. I don't like the tabs on the top or the page, bookmark, tools and the home icon.

Really? I prefer tabs on top, though I have them below the address bar right now

I have the top a mix of menu and address and search boxes. Efficiency

I use TinyMenu, I guess you already know about that though... solves the problem for now.

I haven't seen that but it looks cool, I'd like it better as a picture icon though.
