Formerly , Xtravo Web Browser makes two major claims to fame. First, speed. It is quite responsive, in general, though it looks like the engine sometimes tries too hard to render everything at once and pauses while it collects data. Otherwise, though, it is quite fast, even on image-heavy pages with complex formatting. Second, Xtravo is integrated with Jawoco Instant Search (though this site works in any browser), which will populate search results as you type. It does so with fairly impressive speed, even on image or video searches, but limits you to a single page of results, which makes it less useful.

Xtravo Web Browser has a -like sparseness, which is a feature users with smaller screens may appreciate. It also has a built-in "boss key"--click a button, and Xtravo vanishes from your taskbar and desktop until you hit Ctrl-E to restore it. Anyone who doesn't see the utility of that has never been a bored cubicle drone.

Some other features of Xtravo deserve positive mention: The image sniffer will download all image links on a page, very useful if you're harvesting pictures from a site. The code browser goes well beyond the typical "show source," to provide a useful, detailed, and syntax-highlighted look at the underlying HTML of a page. Last, it has a built-in cookie viewer, which is a nice tool for seeing just what kind of information is being logged.

Beyond that, though... it's a browser. Xtravo doesn't have specialized features for particular types of users, or unique functions like 's Unite. Since I do have horizontal screen space to spare, I would have liked some kind of sidebar or docking functionality.

Xtravo Web Browser's limited documentation and support are in somewhat fractured English, and it seems that the main audience is Middle Eastern, not American. It is quite possible I am overlooking features which may be welcome outside the U.S.
