Wonder what Neowin's stats are? Personally I wont use Firefox until 3.0 is out. Firefox doesn't integrate with Vista very well, it feels too foreign to me. I'm glad the firefox team is serious about integration. They want to look better than IE7 on Windows and better than safari on the Mac. I can't wait.

[Nashy]

I got $10s riding on the fact that the memory leaks haven't been fixed yet. :-/

[McCrap]

Hopefully this update fixes some crashes i've been experiencing

They are never going to fix all memory leaks unless they stop working on new features and focus on bugs. (and I mean in the entirety, not just a temporary thing)

Of course it's large memory usage has nothing to do with leaks, if that's what you're talking about.

[ZonoBurk]

Waiting for IE 7.0.0.1 :p

Thanks for the update. ;)
