    Download day is today. June 17th. The download starts at 10am Pacific time (GMT -7)

    Wait for it (or at least download it again)... :p

    The link acedriver gave at the top of this page should work.

    Ahhh! "Http/1.1 Service Unavailable"
    DL'ed from acedriver instead :)

    Edit: Acedriver's link seems to be Firefox 3 release candidate though. That's what the startup page said, but not the About window :think:

    Edit 2: I think they just forgot to remove that startup page for the final version. Downloading another setup from another souce does the same thing. Hmmm.

    Edit 3: Firefox's pretty cool so far. I had to download the QuickDrag extension though. Heheh Super Drag and Drop <3. Memory usage is a tad higher than I expected. With 11 tabs (all TechArp forum pages), it's using 66.868 K. Maxthon 1.6.3 uses 44.940 K. I might have to tweak it :think:

    Yeah, I noticed the memory usage is still quite high, it doesn't bother me though. 4GB of RAM FTW :thumb:

    I don't understand why they want to release Firefox 3 first, then only start the record the following day... :shifty:

    I checked the page. They will only start the record on the 18th of July 5pm UTC, which means 19 July 2am. :roll:

    LOL! I misread. Download BY! :haha:

    Already exceed the 1.6mil expectation! :dance:

    But they'll still need to check their log to get the official numbers. I download thrice on 3 different systems. :D
