While Firefox 3 may not include many new user interface features, it appears that Mozilla has finally fixed Firefox's many memory leaks and resource management. Not only is the browser considerably faster at loading, the rendering speed of Ajax-heavy pages, or Web 2.0 websites, is likewise 2-3 times faster. I also really like the improved GTK theme integration on Linux. This latest release is definitely worth checking out, and offers a considerable backend improvement over Firefox 2.

I use Firefox 2.01 on a Mac. The whole tabbed browsing features was great 2 years ago, but all browsers do that now. So what's so great about firefox now? Plugins. If you're a web developer there's really no other way to go.
As for complaints, it's slow and a resource hog. I know it's better on Windows, but on a Mac both Safari and Opera feel much faster.
Don't get me wrong - there's not that much to complain about. I just wish they would evolve web browsing beyond tabs and plugins.
