Point 5 : everything in there was available previous to FF 3, without any addons or personal customisation.

I love firefox only because of its plugins and rendering method. but to be honest it is the most annoying browser. If I open to many tabs it will be very slow and sometimes give me errors. I have 4 gigs of RAM and a Quad Core, so I think it has nothing to do with lack of resources. It just a buggy browser.

The more I use Firefox the more I dislike it. Has Mozilla gone the way of Microsoft and started releasing products way too early just to keep up with the demand?

FF3 r0x! No longer does it take up 350+ megs of RAM like v2 did!

Actually the download manager has always been able to do this. Were you using IE or something?

Forget what I said...looks like Lifehacker said the same thing.

Oh and I don't believe you need an extension to revert back to the Oldbar...if I'm not mistaken there was a feature on Lifehacker not too long ago that changed up some about:config settings and reverts the bar to the old one. I could be mistaken though. :-X

I don't know what kind of error you got, but Gmail has been working fine ever since the 2nd beta for me. In fact, I don't recall ever getting an error from Gmail in Firefox (or any other browser) and I've used Firefox for years now. Maybe it was some kind of isolated experience, but if that's enough of a deal-breaker to you than to each his own...I know Firefox 3 runs the best on my computer as far as I know (compared to other browsers).

Windows 2000 with a paltry 256 MB FF3 runs smoothly with no crashing or apparent bugs since the Firefox betas.

Personally, I dig the Awesomebar functionality but there's no browser for everyone I suppose.

I'm not sure about the new auto complete yet, but it's early days, I'm sure I'll get used to it...

I agree with AndrewJustin, lots of bugs still. I'm waiting for 3.0.1 at least before the upgrade.

Has anyone used the Prism features yet? Has that been improved at all since RC2?

2 years in the making and I log into gMail, click a link and it gives me an error. I click the same link in Safari and it works fine. It seems like FF3 is not ready for a release yet but here it is. Forget about giving feedback too-- you have to beg the site with 10 pages of navigation to type 20 characters about your problem. Arrr!

What about the drag and drop image function? I don't think this was a part of older versions. It seems that now you can click on any image on a site and dump it in a folder, on the desktop etc.

The speed and stability is what I like most. Now I'm just waiting for all my plug-ins to catch up.

Excuse the double post, but the links are in the 2nd update.

ReadWriteWeb has some direct download links that worked for me.

Thanks for the highlights. I'm using Release Candidate 3 on my Mac and it works beautifully. The Firefox homepage is still promoting FF2. That's not a very good start if they want to break the "download record".
