PCWorld: Atomic Web For iPad – Better Than Firefox?

The reviewer says he has switched to Atomic Web from Firefox on his iPad because of the better tabbing functionality and other features such as find in page and full-screen browsing, which are missing from Firefox.


“After reading about Atomic Web for the iPad a few days ago on Gizmodo, I surrendered $1 to the App Store and gave it a try. Now, I’ve happily banished Safari to the farthest reaches of my home screen, as this browser alternative looks and feels like Safari but with better features.

Atomic Web’s main lure is tabbed browsing. On the iPhone, I never had much use for tabs, because I don’t frequently read on the small screen, and therefore don’t get into the routine of opening background windows while scanning for interesting articles. On the iPad’s big screen, bouncing between pages is essential.”
