So... I've been doing a tiny bit of playing around in IE 7 this morning.
Suffice it to say: I REALLY like.
Lightweight and boots fairly quickly. Pages load quick, and render amazingly quick/well. Very nice interface - lightweight and clean.
If it weren't such an early Beta, I'd stick it on my main/production machine and start using it right away. (Tabs work just as in FF, but with an added 'blank-chiclet-tab' hiding off to the right side of your open tabs - when you click on it you get a new tab, and focus shifts to the url field - NICE.)
Yeah, I made the mistake of putting it on my production machine... suffice it to say I've now re-built that box entirely to try and remove all traces of it. It has an uninstall... but it doesn't really work.

I'm a big fan of it too. One thing: if you're running a pre-beta 2 did you see the preview page for your tabs? I took a screenshot:

Basically it gives you a preview of your tabs. Very nice. I actually have it on my production boxes (not all of them). I went to uninstall on one machine and it came right off, IE6 restored. Bummer to hear about your experience Jon...
