I would switch back to konqueror as file manager but I got used to some of the 
quick functions of dolphin, ie, the pane along the right side with file 
information when hovering over a file, an icon to switch to previews on the 
toolbar etc..

Actually those are the main 2 I use all the time.

Also while we are talking about konqueror as a web browser, (which I do like, 
I use ff occasionally due to some comp-atibility issues on a few sites I use 
regularly) I cant figure out how I had a small bar to the right of the 
addressbar on 3.5.8 for quick searching on search engines?
