As I'm typing this now, I'm using what will ultimately be the best web browser available.
Yes, Gran Paradiso is shaping up nicely with the latest release 'Alpha7'.
The first thing you will notice on opening Gran Paradiso is that nothing has been done to the theme yet - and I welcome that!
Its nice to see that the developers have focussed on much more importing issues, for example:
1) Full ACID2 compliance - try it out yourself and see the yellow smiley face rendered to perfection. Then open the same in IE7 and laugh at how badly it comes to rendering the page correctly.
2) Speed - pages seem to be opening a lot faster than they did with Firefox 2
3) Bug fixes - So far I have noticed that the dreaded cursor in an input field within an absolutely positioned div has been fixed! Nice one. Now my popup dhtml dialogs can be used properly.
On the downside, its still only an alpha and I've literally been using it for about 10 minutes (excluding the time taken to complete this blog). However, it is looking very very nice.
