IE8 first impressions

I've manage to get some time our from my busy weekend schedule - I'm preparing my Navision RFID extension module, so it is definitely a first impression.

What I found cool:

  • IE8 is considerably faster than IE7 - didn't get to compare it against Firefox3; oh, well, as blazing fast as IE is blazing slow...
  • Add-ons are now first class citizens on IE8;
  • The domain highlight on the link box is just awesome.

Uncool:

  • Searching still happens on a popup dialog...

[update]

Ok, the add-in model isn't as cool, independent and sandboxed as the Firefox model... pity...
