I've been using Chromium for 4-5 months which I believe is even a newer build than the Chrome beta.   And updates come 
through regularly.

Flash is a little clunkier than in Firefox (I have a 1.5 Ghz machine), but everything else is much, much zippier.  I use 
it for 90% of my regular browsing now.
