    I pledged as well but I think it would not work as certain part of the world like here have very very slow internet connection. So on that day when it comes, since thousands would be downloading.. it would be impossible to get the bandwidth. Heck is even hard for me to download Firefox 2.0 now

    I'm sure they've thought of that, they probably have set up a bunch of mirrors.

    They should definitely set up a torrent for this as well.
    I'll join the downloading as well as it's been a while since I've played with Firefox. v3 should be fun :D

    Has anyone here tried out FireFox 3 with the RC1 version? I'm using it now and i've to say. initial testing shows that it's really cool!

    Yes I installed it a few days ago with Ubuntu 8.04 and its a bit faster than the 3.0 beta 5 that installed with Ubuntu.

    More stable compare to FF2? Still using the customize version of FF..not sure which version..

    Definitely, pretty much everything in FF3 should be better than FF3. The biggest thing probably being memory usage.

    Here's the memory usage of FF3 compared to other browsers:

    LOL! My Maxthon uses like 300-400 MB of memory and sometimes over 1 GB of virtual memory!! :haha: :haha:

    Crazy, bloated browser but it's what I'm used to. :nuts:
