Scoble is giving IE 7 a whirl:

But IE7 does have some challenges ahead of it. Some sites in it render very slow. Most notably for me, Google Reader. I’m also using the new Firefox 2 and Firefox is a LOT faster. IE7 is frustratingly slow on Google Reader. It seems to hang whenever new stuff is being downloaded in the background via AJAX. To be fair, Google is probably pushing the browser in all sorts of ways, even the MSN team decided to back off on its use of AJAX due to speed problems, though (Live.com used to have an infinite scroll capability, which I really loved but they got rid of it after speed complaints came in).

I can't speak to this directly; I haven't grabbed IE 7 yet. What worries me about IE 7 has to do with the internal websites here at Cincom. When I tried one of the betas, it simply didn't work with our main intranet site. It may well be fine now, but I'm a bit leery.
