I was disappointed with it.

Every time a new tab was opened, the browser would open a new window, which it would then collapse into a new tab. Same goes for switching between tabs. Very frustrating.

It was so frustrating, in fact, that I uninstalled it before I even had a chance to use it fully.

The Maxthon browser, a derivative of IE, has had tabbed browsing for a while. However, I am curious as to how well they (MSN-IE, Maxthon-IE) implement tabbed browsing. The only browsers I have found to implement it correctly is K-Meleon and Opera: even Firefox will allow some pages to open in a new window, sometimes certain pop-ups are not blocked. If you give it a whirl, please post your results.
