www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord/The Guinness world record of most downloaded software in 24 hours. Firefox wants to set that record. And it's up to YOU to help! Like Firefox? Then stay tuned for the release date of Firefox 3 and help create a record of such awesomeness. I'm totally digging this...

I already use Firefox. 2.0.0.14.
FF3 looks intruiging, but I'll wait until it's out of beta. (and releasing on ti-*shot*)

I'm worried that FF3 will make more than half of my lovely plugins cease to work.
Does it offer anything shiny? New interface? Anything?

Eh, I might download the beta. I'm using Firefox 2 at this very moment.

Firefox 3 final has been released.
Only problem is so many people are getting it'll take ages for the page to load. The main page itself has been loading for a few minutes on my end already. ._.;

From looking at the release notes, there's not a lot of it I actually like about it.
Downloaded the install file anyway, but I'm not thinking about installing it anytime soon. I'm quite happy with v2.0.0.14. Only problem I have with 2.0.0.14 is the goddamn batmna QuickFind bug.

One thing I like about any of the betas, release candidates and the final reslease itself:
NO MORE MEMORY WASTAGES.
Honestly, it had memory bugs back in FF2 that sucked your memory like a ho with a lollipop.
>_>

Also when closing tabs it feels much more responsive now when you have a lot of tabs open. The 'intelligent' URL bar is actually quite useful, too (much better than it was in the betas by the looks of it, too). It's starting to grow on me, I'll say that.
