Same here, several crashes in the last couple days as well as hit or miss performance on secure websites (mostly misses).

I get no video from my ip cameras when using Chrome but I do get it using Safari

I've looked for the function to mail a link to a page. I use this a lot ... it may be there but not obvious. For me it and the ability to use it as the default browser are critical so I played with it for a while and switched back to Safari.

There's a link earlier in this thread that explains why.

MarcP,
I looked at the link in post#6 but can't find the reason why there's no ip camera video. Would you direct me to where you saw this?
Thanks,
Joe

Safari is also built on WebKit, and has a bonus advantage of being able to use its Nitro JavaScript engine, which is not available to outside apps.

I would think this plays a great role.

Thanks MarcP

If you are jailbroken, you can use "Browserchooser", and it will make Chrome your default browser.
