And of course, that's where the questions start right now:
Chrome is based on Webkit, game over for Safari?
How will the everything is a Tab metaphor fit into Android or other mobile platforms? That's where most of the browsing pain is right now.
Is Chrome aiming to choke Air and Silverlight or really just another browser? Chrome/Gears seems like a profound team.
