All well and good but what database will IE 9 support. All other (major) browsers now have working web sql or indexed db implementations. IE was rumored to support indexed db approach but this is strangely missing from any IE 9 marketing material. Hardware acceleration and pretty flashing things are all well and good but there is a hell of a lot of business centric features that are required in the next version of web (db, web workers, sockets, etc). Please update us on these. Tnx

I find myself enabling the Favorites Bar, it makes for a better touch experience. I do wish that the Favorites fly-out menu actually filled the whole window and had a touch friendly, large icon/grid layout. If that was available, I wouldn't use the Favorites Bar.

I also strongly feel that the IE team should enhance Pinned Site concept to display webslices and/or rss headlines from the taskbar without requiring an active browser session.
