Firefox 3 is finally ready to be downloaded. Mozilla is trying to break the record of the most downloaded software in one day. So far up to this second, already close to 3 millions downloads all over the world.

I found that Firefox 3 is faster than the previous version one. It has new Gecko rendering engine that handles AJAX heavy pages quickly. Gmail and Google Document site are faster with less lag to open the links. It loads less time than other browser. CSS is fine too. So far I haven’t found any anomaly when regularly browsing certain sites.

One thing bothers me which is the incompatible add-on. I use Firebug a lot. I need to upgrade the Firebug to 1.2 Beta which I think it does not look good compare to the one in FF 2. However other add-ons look fine, they are automatically upgraded when you install FF3 for the first time.

So why don’t you try it now! Now my primary browser is FF3, while I still need IE6 installed for my development purpose.
