    I am kind of enjoying the spell checking in the forms and whatnot...

    It seems quicker to me, too!

    I don't think there's anything too major, I think the form spell checker is one of the more significant ones

    that's actually incorrect. The release candidates are available through the ftp site, true. But this is the actual release. The release candidates are obsolete as of last night.

    To be honest Im starting to hate Firefox more and more. Ive been using it since Phenix.... and Its been going downhill. I tried IE7, and I think Im gonna switch back to it.

    Before you do that why don’t you try Opera. I’m telling that it will be worth your while. :D

    I guess most extentions won't work with it yet? I'll wait till it comes out of BETA.

    Yep, none of my extensions worked…. I would advise people to wait because from what I’m seeing there isn’t many changes anyway. ;)
