How does the PS3 internet browser works?

I have been wondering this for a while.

I know that you can use the internet on your PS3 and all that, but I would like some help with the specifics:

 

1) How good (or bad) is it?
2) How fast (or slow) is it?
3) How is the layout (like IE or Mozzilla or something different)?
4) Is it ok using a controller to navigate?
4) Can I check e-mail, watch videos, post on VGChartz (), etc. or are there limitations?

 

Thanks to anybody that can answer any of those questions.

 

1.) It's not that bad, but at the same time it's not good either.

2.) To give you a comparison, my parents' old pentium 4 at 1.4Ghz outperforms it. Granted, that's with a decent browser.

3.) It uses the Prestro rendering engine (used in Opera)

4.) I don't mind using the controller

5.) You can do all of those things. The biggest limitation is the ram.
