I usually wait a bit for Firefox updates, but went ahead and got it on the first day.

As expected, half my extensions didn't work, they seem to be slowly getting updated as the days go by. Roboform still isn't working with FF3, that's a major one for me.

Apparently my old profile on the Vista box has hosed the FF3 install, I'll have to manually delete some files, it seems.

The one big bug here at TSWB forum, the posting bug where the script hangs up seems to be solved with this release. Also some other sites that didn't quite look or act right are working better with this release.

The smilies still don't work right here though. A few extensions I like aren't updated yet. Overall it gets a thumbs up from me though.

Yes! FF3 works better here at TSWB! Didn't have to open the IETab to reply your post. Nice!
And the forum loads fast as well!
I've noticed a bug with Babylon FF extension... the Babylon window just fits where you can type here (reply window). Didn't try other forum yet. I'll see if I can show a print screen here.

I never got into the IEtab extension, I always tabbed over from the Subject box to the Message window to get around that script hanging bug. I'm actually having to use IE7 right now on my main rig, as FF3 is having problems on my Vista install, still trying to find a solution. IE7 is the most awkward thing to use after using FF all these years. My biggest gripe is I find my mouse going all over the place getting things done in the toolbars.

I don't know where the author of AutoCopy is, but users have reported changing some text in the install.rdf file, max version showed as 3.0B5, change it to 3.0, works fine. Kinda hard to do, an you have to extract the install.rdf file, edit it and add it back into the .xpi archive. AuroCopy is an addon copies any text into clipboard that you highliight like mirc and linux does.

Check out the file below my stats sig for the auto_copy-0.8-fx.zip file

I edited the .rdf file yet again for FireFox 3.01, see the file below. thought about just going ahead and putting like 3.0.15 in there, but who knows when something might break.

Nice! Thanks!

It just doesn't AutoCopy in IETabs, but then I don't remember if any version did.

I see someone at the mozdev site has done a bit of editing of the original file to keep it going- http://autocopy.mozdev.org/

Changed maxversion for Firefox to 3.1a2pre and Thunderbird to 3.0a2pre. Minor bugfix with windows version.

I've enjoyed FF3 It works as expected.  I'm a bit disappointed with the skins.  I havent had to time to check to see if they are updated.  Otherwise it was a clean install and works just fine

Re: AutoCopy .9.7 released  (United States)
AutoCopy has been update to .9.7 by the original author, at http://autocopy.mozdev.org/ You will not get the latest version through Mozilla's official addon pages or through FF's updater. Bummer, but it does work with FF 3.04 now.
