Rekonq

The fast, simple, WebKit-based browser

Looks very different from Konqueror? Yes, it does, and that is going to please a lot of people. So what is different?

It's a new application, not built on legacy code
It uses QtWebKit, giving access to a whole new set of features and tools, which will allow further development.
It's simple: no menubar, only one menu with the most important actions

Let's look at its features – does it have the ones you loved in Konqueror? Well, it's still early days, but so far it can boast

A clean, uncluttered look
Has only one bar for searches and urls
Support for kde web shortcuts
Tabbed and multi-window browsing
Shares your Konqueror bookmarks
Shares your Konqueror cookies
Renders many pages that Konqueror struggles with
Can navigate in a proxied network
Has a private browsing mode
Can inspect web pages.
Has a homepage with previews of your preferred sites

Click on any of these for an enlarged screenshot:

Integral page zoom, findbar and private browsing enabled

You'll find these and other screenshots on Picasa. The project's home page is here.

The developers can be found on the IRC channel #rekonq and there is a mailing list for your questions.

Take a quick tour with this mini-overview, then sit back and enjoy the experience. (This is a pretty outdated overview, since it shows version 0.0.4, while rekonq the current version is 0.4)
