Mozilla released Forefox 3.5 yesterday, 30/06, anyone tried it yet? There is quite a list of known issues on their site already.

Still on 3.0.11
Let em sort the early probs first.

I might just give it a try on the laptop when I get home.

Using it now.

It's a _LOT_ faster than 3.0.11, and I like that. It doesn't seem to be as memory hungry (although I'll have to wait and see about that), and all my plug-ins work perfectly.

IMHO, it craps all over Safari 4, and that was supposed to be fast, super-slick and all the rest. To me, it just sucked mud.

Installed last night, and yes, it is very fast, I watched a re-run of Assen on BBC iplayer without a single stutter, excellent!

Watched it again on IE8, shite! But Rossi still won

But is it perfect? No.

Nothing major, I just get a tiny white box under the cursor now & then, only .5mm across so not really important.

All add ons are there except for the TVU player, but I don't need that untill the footy starts again.

All in all I am impressed.
