Nice feature! I'm surprised by how well it works here, what with all the fancy controls and whatnot. Unfortunately, it does not work so well on other sites. Oh well. I guess there's really only so much Apple can do in this regard.

I've noticed that forms in Safari now take on the site-defined appearance rather than Aqua. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is a matter of opinion, I suppose. Scroll bars, at least, are still always aqua.

Tab reordering is done very nicely. Getting the tabs to turn into windows seems a little quirky, though. For a while I thought it was impossible to drag the last tab of a window off of that window (and into another) because it just wouldn't work. Turns out you can do that (yay!), but it might take a few drags to get it to actually work.

PithHelmet has been made so that it won't try to load itself into versions of Safari it wasn't built for. It's possible it would work perfectly with this version if you just went in and tweaked its plist (which I intend to do if there's not a new version today ). SafariStand seems to work perfectly.

Edit: No, PithHelmet does not work, period. If you try to force it to load, it'll just crash Safari. So we'll have to wait for an update. Oh well.

I could be crazy, but this version seems a bit faster. That might just be the effects of a reboot, though.

Well, I was SORELY disappointed with the "One More Thing" announcement. I guess for some it's a boon. Not for me. (I run Linux on my PCs so meh on the Safari for Windows....maybe I'll try and WINE it... )

I did get excited about all of the features in Leopard. I'm definitely sending the $$ on it once it's out....or maybe I'll just wait for when it's included with the MBP I want to buy.

I'm curious about the remodeled Finder and I'm glad to see the Unified look become the standard. Give me a simple yet elegant design.

nope. it would appear here I guess: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/guide/appleevents/
And the direct link should be this when it arrives: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/wwdc07/

But so far: Nothing. I'm waiting as well...
