Google Chrome 7.0 Released for Dev Channel

Google made available for download the first Chrome 7.0 for all platforms. Google Chrome 7.0.503.1 dev is an incremental update with very few changes for those already using the dev channel builds. The Dev channel has been updated to 7.0.503.0 for Windows, Mac and Chrome Frame; 7.0.503.1 for Linux.
The changes in the first Chrome 7 release are largely dependent on the last version used. Those who follow the dev channel have nothing to be excited about, with an update coming every week or so, the changes are rarely substantial. There is just one fix in the latest release of interest to Linux users: "IP addresses typed into the omnibox now work when offline." 

Recently released the latest Chrome 6 beta, there aren't many noticeable changes in Chrome 7. However, bigger changes are on the roadmap. For one, web apps will be fully supported in Chrome 7. The Chrome Web Store is already live in testing for developers and is now slated for an October launch. The sync capabilities will be extended as well, to include support for web app sync, for obvious reasons, but also tab sync. Later on, password sync and perhaps history sync will be included, but these may not end up in Chrome 7. The stable release is still Google Chrome 5.0 but the Google Chrome 6.0 beta should be available for the stable channel soon.
