With addons you might get a better tablet-experience.
Smoothness could be compared to fennec, not very fast but in my opinion reasonible fast for a small cpu like this and you get the advantages of an up-to-date desktop browser.

90% Firefox (the last updated N900 version from FF, not the one from the OVI store), 10% Microb.
Opera seems to drain a lot of battery, & I've never had time to get into figuring out how to download & install the FF nightly builds.

the only thing that i like on opera is the fact that it rearange texts to be on the screen, when i zoom in/out.
but i don't read too many things on phone from internet, so i prefer to use microb.
for microb, the anoing thing is that he not have a select text function, opera again win here.
it is easier to use microb, but sometimes u need opera for those things.

You can select text in microb with a shortcut gesture.
Slide with your finger on top lefthand into the screen.

And yes I am overclocking at 900 Mhz, but should also work a little slower at 600 Mhz.
Edit: Got that wrong, you are talking about the launch of fennec right? It takes roughly 20 seconds on my n900 to start fennec 12 nightly.

93% - Opera / 7% - Fennec 6.01
I use FF on desktop PC/Ubuntu, but on the N900 it's slow and memory exhausting. This renders multitasking useless.
I would prefer Fennec if it had the speed of Opera or MicroB.
Never noticed a battery consumption issue with Opera.
Even so, i'd prefer to get there sooner on the motorway and use more fuel, than get stuck in stop start traffic.
I use Opera for most and Fennec for websites that don't work on Opera.

Fennec is a nice effort to port the "bloated" FF to mobile platforms. It runs reasonible fast compared to the small cpu.
Keep in mind that the full Chromium and Firefox browsers through ED are not optimised for tablets and for exapmle you have to scroll with stylus by tapping bars (or use the keyboard) like on the desktop.
With addons you might get a better tablet-experience.
