I have been using FF3 for about 15mins now and i'm very surprised. They seem to have sorted out many bugs from the beta and actually quite like it. The whole design is much smaller allowing for maximum browsing. The improved zoom and full screen moods are a god send. Also probably most important is the great reduce in processing power needed to run FF3 its considerably less than FF2, and the application opens instantly where as FF2 took a few seconds.

I am surprisingly pleased, still looking through all the menus but there seems to be lots of very good improvements, good job Mozilla.

I just had a quick look there and visually it's ok, well sort of... I like the look of the tabs but the back button looks a bit like IE5 well on Mac anyway. I'm gonna have a look through it now and see what I think.

I like the new bookmark handeling, and when scroll-click at a bookmark folder with several folders in it, it opens them up without closing the current tabs.

Just have to wait a few days for my addons to be working with version 3 though :S

Yeah that post seems abit out of place, I would have to agree with you aswell about FF3 works great for me, I should imagine that they hav just took quite a chunk of the market aswell, with the latest news of IE7 security issue hitting all the papers and TV news.

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.

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 :).
