We have downloaded and immediately installed the new version to find out some of the changes, which are as follows:
- Definitely faster than Firefox 2.+
- Back and Forward buttons are now in the Navigation Bar unlike in previous version that it can be placed in the Menu bar separately. You can't see the Back and Forward icons in the Customize option when you right click in.
- Memory usage when maximized: 42 mb; when minimized: 16 mb.
- Some add-ons which were previously functional were disabled. But we are sure that developers of these add-ons will update them now that this latest Firefox version has been released.
Important: My tweaks for the previous versions are still good for Firefox 3.0, view them here.
