Two years ago I really would have love this firefox and I'd have talk to everyone about it. However, now that I'm used to chrome, it kind of look "big" and "sad". Maybe it's the brown/gray color at the top and the fact that when I type g it doesn't automatically complete for gmail.com or n for news.ycomb... and that tab aren't as movable as chrome.

The autocomplete learns based on your past browsing habits. Give it some time and it’ll get there.

I know but this isn't exactly the same. On firefox, it suggests idea with a dropdown.. on chrome, it autocompletes them. Also, if it's not found, it automatically search on google.. and by pressing [tab], you can search directly from a known site. That's 3 features I really use.

To get autocomplete in Firefox, go to about:config, search for "autofill" and set browser.urlbar.autofill to "true".

not to mention how bad bookmarks are on FF (and Opera) compared to Chrome.
