I find it difficult to answer the question without some idea of what the "better experience" might be. Tabs are the best idea anyone's offered me so far, and I have no better idea off the top of my head, so I'm happy to use them. Show me an alternative implementation that I love, and I'll happily abandon tabs. Conversely, show me an alternative implementation that doesn't address my needs as well, and I will stick to tabs.
