The problem is, Steve, that you are not hearing what you are missing. Some parts of sites simply do not display, so unless you are familiar with the site, you would not necessarily know content was missing. A particular nasty I have come across are drop down selection boxes or lists which simply don't drop down or display anything but the default. And yet they are O.K. with IE7. Even yesterday I came across a Lulu on Microsoft's own site, where a particular TechNet subscription page was locked into the USA, and would not display a list of countries, to subsequently enable costs to be displayed in Pounds Sterling. The guys have admitted it is an IE8 problem, and is the not the only one they have come across. My wife and I have been using Autotrader of late as she wants a newer car. The rendering pretty well sucks in many cases, and so we've had to use another system with IE7 to see what was missing. If it came up with a blazing great error message, it wouldn't be quite so bad, but I can't hack missing material.

It's also a heck of a lot faster too.

While it may "appear" to work - mostly - there are some sites which have yet to be modified to work properly with IE 8. I had a list of 2,500 major sites which had problems, but will need to locate it.

Do I presume this is now out of BETA? Can anyone tell me how it is working with Jaws 9-10? Any advice as to whether I should go ahead and install and information about what's changed/new would be most welcome.
