It's also running new versions of both the Javascript engine and Webkit. Along with the minor user-interface improvements, I think the use of a new version number is justified -- the developer community has been keeping busy!

I really miss the smooth scrolling too. I wanted to upgrade but I read somewhere that you have to delete whole chrome and install it from scratch if you want to have the stable build again. That scared me off a bit, so I will wait for the normal release. And about the number. Haha, not the developers but the marketing guys give the numbers these days it seems. So although I can say you are right that they give versions "2" pretty fast, it is also understandable. Don't forget that Chrome 2 uses Webkit 528.8, which makes most of the new features possible. So all the new features and the new webkit is not a small step within the development which might justify the cool number 2 ;) Yes neem you are right. I really miss the smooth scrolling too.

I simply can't believe this hasn't been added to Chrome yet as it is absolutely ESSENTIAL if you READ ON THE INTERNET! I love everything about Chrome so far, but find it difficult to use daily w/o smooth scrolling. Any word on whether SMOOTH SCROLLING is implemented?
