I prefer real books with paper. Unless they highly improve what is already on the market than they can keep their ebooks to themselves.
I already spend way too much time in front of my monitor, I don't really want to make my eye-sight any worse by reading ebooks.
I'm hoping this electronic paper will improve otherwise I'll have to stay with the tree-cutters.
I think the reviewer left out some information. iCab is still in a betaversion. The final (if there is something like a final version) will cost money, right now the browser is free and I think it does a good job.
If you think it's too ugly choose some new icons to go with it, they have a bunch of them on their download page.
You can also use iCab to check your basic html coding, although there's problems with CSS and frames but I expect that will be fixed in future versions.
I also think that iCab is fast enough and it's cache is a lot better than Netscape's.
However, if you need plug-ins stay with what you know.
It should also be mentioned that iCab has it's own download manager which can also be configured to the last bit.
I'm looking forward to the alphaversion of this browser.

With "improve" I mean: the price tag!
