My experience for anyone interested:
Amazon is still slow for me. But I think I saw some slight increase in browsing in general with Firefox 3.6.28 when I unchecked "Accept Third Party Cookies" under the Privacy prefs.
2) You might also try Opera, though I was unable to get AdBlock Plus to install on it.
3) Depending on what kind of content you want, turn Safari into a speed demon by shutting a lot of features down.
a) Use PithHelmet and crank up "Ad Blocking level" and "Cookie Privacy Level"; Block mode -- faster; Animate images -- never. You can always change preferences for individual sites, though for me that is too much trouble. You might see some oddly rendered pages so tinker with it.
b) Select private browsing.
c) Disable javascript.
I tried this only as an experiment. It's almost like using a text-only browser. The Amazon pages didn't render properly but there are probably some sites that would.
