While I haven't experienced having to type slowly in an edit box, I have
experienced the following:

JFW does not read what you've just typed while you are in the edit box
using 'read current line'

Many more lockups than before while in IE version 6 (haven't dowloaded
version 7 yet)

Not "seeing" anything on certain e-mail messages (suspect those sent in
HTM format).

Haven't begun to see what happens with same tasks with JFW version 7, but
have used version long enough to know what I'm experiencing in version 8
is unusual -- and frustrating!
