Downloaded it a while ago. ^^

The only thing I dislike is the new default skin >_>

*needs Firefox 2.0 skin*

LOL @ Chim.

You do that with everything. DVDs, chocolate, and now FireFox. You get it and then you wait 6 to 8 months before you watch it, eat it or install it XD

I just downloaded it but haven't installed it yet, I want to try it but I have several addons and I assume they won't work with 3.0 yet.

o_O

I thought that everyone knew about ff3 and that they wanted to set a new record
"We'd really like to outdo the number of Firefox 2 downloads on its launch day, which was 1.6 million. Let's shoot for 5 million--the sky is the limit!"
They totally owned the 5M mark, now they have to argue their case with Guiness to set the record, since there isn't any previous one.

anyways..
I have been using ff3 beta since last ubuntu release in April (the ubuntu folks thought it was a good idea to shove the beta to all us) I only had some issues with most extensions :P
I still like more Konqueror xP

I'm using Firefox 3 now and it seems to load pages faster and stuff XD It might take a while before i get used to some of the little changes like the dotted box around links, is that new or is it just bigger now? I prefer the icons used in Firefox 2 aswell XD
Oh and all my plugins work btw

I think the only problem I have with FireFox3 is that before certain images load, their title or alt tags can be seen and sometimes make the page look weird at first. What should happen is that the image is loading but doesn't show anything. If the image loads, woot. If the image doesn't load, THEN the title or alt tag should appear... or something...
