Thumbs up Set a new world record downloading Firefox 3
Firefox 3 is coming soon and the Firefox team is attempting to break a world record! The world record for most downloaded software in 24 hours. That day would be called Download Day 2008. That day would be totally sweet, people are throwing parties to celebrate the Firefox 3 download day (http://mozillaparty.com/en-US/).

Insanely improved performance:

It's not flashy, and it doesn't have any social networking features, but Firefox 3's actual performance is the best reason anyone should consider upgrading, or making the switch to the 'fox. Firefox's engineers claim that their third major release is 9.3 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 in JavaScript performance, and 2.7 times faster than Firefox 2. This means snappier browser performance when you're using webapps like Gmail, Remember the Milk, and more. Even more important, especially for Mac users, is the improved memory usage and more than 15,000 improvements that make for a less crash-prone browser. I've seen noticeable speed-ups in page loading in Linux, XP, and Vista, but the real reason I've switched over to using Release Candidate 1 is that I haven't had to cross my fingers every time a Flash-based video loads.

I've been using the Portable Version of RC1, since I love my FF2 settings.

I'll install the actual release when it is introduced.
