Safari beta 3 is available for public beta from the Safari download page. It is also making an appearance on Windows for the first time. I have just downloaded it and I have to say it’s the fastest rendering browser I have ever used. I actually can’t believe how fast it is.
I’m not too familiar with Safrai’s features as Camino is my browser of choice but I will explore this beta release a bit further. From my early experience there seems to be no major additional features but the speed is very very noticeable.
The download comes as package which includes an uninstaller which will revert to the previous version of Safari when run.
I’m very surprised this has been released before both the iPhone and Leopard. I wonder what features will make it into the final release…? What features would you like to see?

I’m happily viewing this page with Safari Beta 3. No problems yet with any of my other regularly visited sites. Don’t see a huge difference compared to the current version, but I’m looking forward to being able to install Safari for my Windows users… it’s a real pain to have to use other browsers just so I can remember the menu and layout stuff for when they ask me stupid questions…
