I gave Safari a week as my default browser back in August before switching back to Camino. From what Dave Hyatt has posted about Safari 1.1, it looks like I’m still waiting for the features I want, but the good news is some are already done. I guess I’ll be looking forward to Safari 1.2.

The software is fast, clean and *almost* 100% compatable with the sites I frequent.

Safari 1.2
It may be time to move over to Safari full time now. Version 1.2 adds accesskey support and with SAFT providing the type-ahead find functionality, it is definitely catching up with Camino.
