It is now in beta and your can download it! Anyone else excited and/or using it? Seems to take up significantly less RAM than firefox did.
Try it out for yourself.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Chrome for Mac

Chrome's never been a very feature-packed browser. Very bare-bones. Unfortunately, the Mac version is even more bare-bones than the Windows version. No extension support, scripting support seems to be completely MIA... it's fast, but so is Safari, the Webkit nightly builds, and Camino.

+1.
Computerworld, via Appleinsider: Safari faster than Chrome on OS X.
While besting Firefox by nearly 50 percent, Google's newly released Chrome browser was 12 percent slower than Apple's Safari in benchmark tests.
In benchmark tests run by Computerworld, Apple's Safari browser claimed the top spot over Firefox, Opera, and Chrome. Google released a beta build of Chrome to the public on Tuesday.
The results showed that Safari slightly edged out Chrome, was nearly twice as fast as Firefox, and over ten times faster than Opera.
Computerworld's method of testing used the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark suite. The test was run three times for each browser in OS X 10.6 and the numbers were averaged.
For what it is right now, it's cool. But I'm sticking with Safari. It's always nice to have options though.
Now if only Firefox didn't suck so much on OS X.
Eh? Safari has never hurt battery life. You must be thinking of Flash, because that most definitely does.

How is in on battery life though? I know Safari 64bit is a battery destroyer.

He's referencing this.
I'd use Chrome if it had find as you type navigation and options to disable java and javascript.
Sticking with Camino for the foreseeable future by the looks of it.
One step closer to being able to use Chrome - find as you type navigation extension: http://code.google.com/p/chrome-type-ahead/
You will need to use a nightly build though. Extensions are disabled in the beta. Now I just need the ability to disable Java and I think I'll be switching from Camino.
