I've never had a console that had a web browser on it, because I only own a 360 (well, I have my PSP, but using that for web browsing never appealed to me at all). I tried the new IE for Xbox last night, though, which is in beta, and I thought it was pretty nicely done. I don't know if I'd use it if I didn't have the keyboard attachment for my 360 pad, but it seemed to work pretty well for a few sites, and CoN looked quite nice on it indeed.

Is anyone else in the current 360 beta? It's worth checking the browser out.

I haven't tried it. From what you've seen from it, does it function like a normal browser?

Seems to. You use the sticks to navigate around (left is mainly for the cursor but can also scroll, and the right is specific for scrolling), and the A button acts as left click and B as the back button. There's probably more to it, but that's the basic stuff. It was really surprisingly intuitive.
