TABS:
iCab Mobile supports Tabs. The Tab overview panel lets you switch the Tabs, delete them or open new ones.
You can also open links in new Tabs (either in the background or in the foreground), or let iCab Mobile ask where to open the link. All this can be configured seperately for links which open a page from the same domain or links with open a page from another domain.
When quitting, all Tabs are saved so they can open in Offline mode when no Internet is available the next time iCab is launched.
BOOKMARKS:
The bookmarks can be organized in folders. You can easily import/export the bookmarks from/to your PC/Mac browser.
Bookmarks can be also saved as "Offline Bookmarks". These bookmarks can be opened without an internet connection. This is an easy way to save web pages on the iPhone.

You can also force the download of a link (tap a link for a longer time until a popup menu opens). All the downloads can be exported to a Mac/PC/Linux computer.

Scrolling within very large web pages can be time consuming. The "Scrollpad" feature lets you go to any location within the web page instantly. Tap with three fingers on the screen to activate the Scrollpad.
