Who would have expected that? Maybe this can be a userfriendlier alternative to Chromium? All that is missing: opensource it.

Well, it's basically just Chromium, so I doubt it would ever be more user-friendly, and effectively it is open-sourced.

I think it's fair to hope for a more customizable Chromium, since customizability is one of the things Opera was known for. For me personally, things like a bookmarks sidebar and more flexible tab positioning would help tempt me to switch back to Opera from Firefox.

Well there are 2 features I really miss in Chromium (which are implemented in Opera now): * easily Add/remove websites from the speeddial * closing the last tab won't quit the browser (this annoyed me the most)

It's not basically Chromium. It's using Chromium yes, but with a new interface.

As I understand it all browsers on iOS use UIWebView rather than their own engines. However, the Opera Coast browser on iOS has a great user interface that is different from Safari.
