ok few questions:

How can i access my bookmarks from a current tab, instead of making a new one and clicking on the bar? Also, can i have a FF style drop menu instead of a bar?

Can i change the default zoom? Getting tired of changing it manually each time.

I think thats it for now. Really like the automatic style speed dial

Right click on the bookmarks bar and select "Always Show Bookmark Bar".

Get better glasses.  And it seems to remember zoom settings for some pages.  At least at home it does.  And I think that any link you follow keeps it but I'm not really sure

Another reason why chrome is better:  You never have to worry about starting it up, then getting a message that a new version is out and then be forced to wait while it updates and restarts itself.  Though a few times I have gotten a passive message saying that chrome needed to be restarted so it could apply the update.

You can have FF do that invisibly as well.
