I'm using it right now and I quite like it. One nice thing is they've really made efficient use of the screen space. Both the top AND the bottom toolbars are smaller than in Firefox... in fact, there is no bottom toolbar. But unlike Safari, which has the bottom toolbar off by default to save space but sacrifices the ability to see the web address you'll go to when you mouse over a link, Chrome puts up a little tooltip along the bottom revealing the URL, and it disappears as soon as you move the mouse. There's much more efficient use of space at the top as well. The tab bar and title bar are in the same vertical space, and the menu options no longer occupy their own bar but rather they are located within buttons on the right side.

I'm sure some interface Nazi will go in and critique every little thing, but I like it. Oh, and it supports resizable text entry boxes like Safari. Nice feature that Firefox doesn't have!
