i wouldnt be so quick to write this browser off or call it dumb. I too am having problems getting it to connect to the internet using a gprs connection. However i see the potential in this app. Keep in mind that it is a beta. im sure most problems will be addressed by the next release. Besides once its working it'll offer a finger friendly browser which i hate to say opera for all its greatness is not

Does it hog as much memory as the native Opera? I'll only consider trying if it uses up less RAM.

I've tried it and it sucks. I'll write a review about it on my site.

My problem is: it loads the whole page, without mobile pagination and I have to push it from left to right to see the whole paragraph.If I still wanna zoom out I have to use that ... feature which doesn't always work.And I don't have the patience to try it 5 times until I make it.I'll stick with Opera.

According to my SMP, Opera takes 192k of RAM, while Digia takes only 96k, which is significantly less. As I said, I'm not sure yet, but it's quite awkward to use. I won't uninstall it just yet,I'll test it some more.
@ares:is there a way to fit the content to page like Opera/Opera Mini without zooming out?

Those indications say nothing about real memory usage, are absolutely useless.
Just look at RAM icon.
Opera takes about 7 - 9 MB of RAM, up to 10 - 11, according to what you open, if you load a whole page and use passwords.
On my P990i, I was out of RAM quickly after the start, but it was first beta.
Maybe second is better for RAM.
Basically, P990 is very bad for memory hungry apps.
