Omniweb 5

Hi all,

Been trying alternate browsers like Camino. Today i bumped into Omniweb.

Read the user manuals and looks like it is packed with features. Any Omniweb users out there care to share some experiences?

I just wanted to do some research prior buying the software.

Thanks.

I have to admit that I am a fan. Prior to Omni I used Camino and Shiira, they are good too but I like the graphics of Omniweb even though it is rather similar to Camino but more integrated to OSX.

As for paying the $29.99 licence fee, well it is a preference and budget thing. If you like it get it.. After all you will be using it daily 🙂

Hope this helps, kind regards

Always found Omniweb to be slower than other browsers in general, and I hate those picture tabs..............too big for me. Basically Omniweb is a different wrapper on the Safari rendering engine. They used to have their own engine which was actually very good but crashed constantly on eBay in particular, so they switched and lost their only advantage.

Why pay when Camino is faster and free? Just asking...........
