I am also getting this issue on Android 2.3.4

Other than that, seems like you smashed most of the other bugs I saw. :) As
for tweaks/requests...

* It would be nice if the indicator that a page is loading was more
prominent. After clicking on links or hitting back, I didn't always know
whether the app was hanging or just loading slowly (I was on BART, mind
you) because the indicator is a very light gray color and I don't expect
status updates from up in the search box unless that's what I typed/tapped
in.
* It would be cool to see the main page listed as "Main Page" or "Home" in
history, instead of "http://en.m.wikipedia.org/". Though I understand that
might make more localization work for you...

Can't wait to see this in the Market!
