Google Chrome 2.0 is out of beta now and is available for all users. It comes with some new features and faster speed.
"Darin Fisher" from Google Chrome Blog says:
Here are some improvements that you'll notice right away:
Improved New Tab Page: The most requested feature from users was the ability to remove thumbnails from the New Tab page. Now you can finally hide that embarrassing gossip blog from the Most Visited section.
Full Screen Mode: If you've ever given a presentation or watched a large video using Google Chrome, you might have wished you could use every last pixel on your screen for the content. Now you can hide the title bar and the rest of the browser window by hitting F11 or selecting the option in the Tools menu.
Form Autofill: Filling out your information in forms over and over again can be tedious. Form autofill helps by showing information you've previously entered into the same form fields automatically. If at any point you want to clear out your information, that's easy to do from the Tools menu.
And here are some improvements that aren't immediately visible, but will make web browsing with Google Chrome more enjoyable:
Increased Stability: Google Chrome is more stable than ever--we have fixed over 300 bugs that caused crashes since launch.
Increased Speed: Making the web faster continues to be our main area of focus. Thanks to a new version of WebKit and an update to our JavaScript engine, V8, interactive web pages will run even faster. We've also made sure that JavaScript keeps running fast even when you have lots of tabs open. Try opening a bunch of web applications and then running your favorite benchmark. You can read more about V8 in our JavaScript scalability post on the Chromium blog.

I don't like it. They broked way how you post new threads in forums. Instead first line only now you get characjters from second line too(like in Opera). Back to previous version (even I miss auto-fill feature).

Firefox 3.5 is faster than anything in it's security range. Safari is slightly faster (safari 4 that is), but it is extremely insecure, so you get a tradeoff.
