So far so good, I had to do some searching to find the fixes for a few extensions and now it is working like a charm. I like it so far, anyone else upgraded?

I too upgraded the only thing I am a bit disapointed with is when watching videos on you tube, real player offers a option to download the videos at the touch of a button but sadly not supported with Firefox 3, but hopefully a solution will be available shortly.
All in all I am quite impressed with the features on the new browser.
I particularly like the way bookmarks are handled.

Paul, Firefox has an add-on called Downloadhelper which will let you grab videos.
I like v3......feels good and streamlined, it's pretty fast and it handles bookmarks very nicely.
