It's pretty bad. Haven't tried any HTML5 sites on it yet. I Didn't know you could get chromium, i'll have to give it a shot. I mostly flick between Opera and MicroB.

 
Have you got the lastest Opera, seems to have improved the screen tearing.
 
I read on a thread by one of the ANgry Birds devs (Angry Birds started on N900) that the problem with N900 is that you cant wait for Vsync

Stopped using it ages ago on anything as it takes forever to load .
 
Version 4 does seem considerably faster at rendering once it has loaded but compared to chrome its miles behind

Meego/qt was looking very interesting.  They did say they will release one device specifcally for it.  Then everything else will be windows 7.   Not tried windows 7 on phones, and I have got nothing against the idea, it just that its replacing two very interesting mobile phone paths.  Also mean prob will not see much advancement for my N900 and have got it for another year
