updated 11:30 pm EST, Wed December 26, 2001
The Omni Group has released OmniWeb v4.1 beta 1. OmniWeb is a popular web browser for Mac OS X. New features include a compatibility preferences pane that allows the user to make websites think OmniWeb is another browser and several user interface enhancements like pop-up history menus on the forward/back buttons. The new beta also has a redesigned download manager with more options. OmniWeb is available for $30 ($20 educational); OmniWeb can also be used for free.

Omniweb still unusable
Sure it's beautiful to look at, but I still can't use it.
Unless I can have Javascript, I can't do much of anything besides look around.
4.0 crashes at least once a session, and even the "crash catcher" crashes.
I would love to replace IE as my primary browser, but I just can't. Not with Opera, iCab or Omniweb.
Omniweb: give me java, and I'll give you money.
