Do you mean in A2 mode?
Just tried out the browser again in both A2 mode and in regular mode. This time, thought I would try it with some video so took a trip over to YouTube to see how it would perform. Then did a little bit of surfing.
In A2 mode, it actually handled videos fairly well. Both the sound and the video image were a bit choppy, but they were viewable. Of course, the experience pales in comparison to the fluid experience of a tablet. Although you probably wouldn't want to watch a movie on the Note, you could watch stuff in a pinch unlike in regular mode in which the experience was very unpleasant.
Surfing regular sites, whether in A2 or regular mode, such as news sites, libraries and Amazon was not much of a problem. I found that pages were relatively quick to load and easy to navigate. The ads tended to not be as annoying as I have found them on previous eink devices where the loading and navigating of pages was much slower.
