Laptops and tablets and browsers, oh my!

[andrewducker]

I really like the look of the new EEE
Transformer which gives you a tablet form factor, a laptop form
factor, and 12-18 hours of battery, depending on whether the keyboard is
plugged in.

I realised recently that the laptop isn't used for anything terribly
complex - I read email on it, surf the web, watch videos in bed and that's
about it. And a tablet would happily do all of that.

The only thing holding me back is that the laptop runs Firefox, and I like
the customisation that that offers. I've tried Chrome, but the lack of
options for even basic things* frustrates me too much.

Anyone played around much with different browsers on Firefox?

*I want URLs to open in a new tab, not overwrite the one I happen to be
looking at. Is that too much to ask?

There is a get it shipped from US type option. We did it for Roy's tablet. Or rather I brought it back in hand luggage. You may luck out but historically the exchange price is never at the rate. Look at Kindles as a good example and that's at the bottom of a price range. We do get economically screwed in the UK for tech.
