Who here tried the beta? To me it seemed like a giant leap backwards, in my opinion. Hope the final version is better.

I have the beta. It's nothing fantastic. I don't mind the address bar remembering my most used websites.. but I really was not happy with how it forced images dragged out of the browser to a) line up properly on the desktop instead of where I want them and b) not let them load into PS by dropping it directly instead of saving it on the desktop.

Its the address bar I couldn't stand, the three lines for each address, its unnecessary and takes up to much room.

very true. I can't believe they didnt make an option to stop that

I tried the beta and hated it, none of the other themes work on it yet and it looks so ugly lol. I'm still going to download it tomorrow to help them break the world record though .

I'm sure somebody will make a fix soon enough after it comes out to remove the extra lines from the address bar.

I'm downloading it, but I will not use it yet. FF2 had some bugs when it was first released, they were fixed in later versions. I was using 1.5 until 2.0.0.8 was out (i think it was . FF3 will probably have some bugs, i will only test it on my virtual machine. I hope they will brake the record.

I only downloaded it to help them break the record, I didn't like the beta at all.

I've been using the Beta for a while, I don't REALLY mind it anymore, but I never bothered changing settings, I jsut use as is with most browsers.
