Although its still in beta, what do you guys think?

I think the "In-Private" browsing and little compatibility feature looks cool. Other than that...I really hope it doesn't have all the bugs/tinks that 6 (especially 6) and 7 have...

It is a huge step for IE, and hopefully a little relief to coders.

Only problem is this whole "In-Private" mode, has been around in FF quite some time as a Add-On. So maybe the actual release of IE8 will reveal something FF doesn't have.

Overall, looks good, but not getting me back!

Tho, it's still a struggle with IE, because of their IE 6 that many people use this day today..

Not everyone bothers to upgrade, infact. A very small percentage of the users that got IE 6 on their computer when they bought it has actually upgraded to IE 7...

So coders would still have to struggle with IE 6 for some more time i assume.

The whole "in-private" functionality has been in Safari for years. To be honest, I'd never use IE, my only care is how well it's attempting to catch up with WebKit, Gecko, etc.
