Firefox 3.5

The final version is out and I've been using it for roughly 1.5 minutes now and all I can say is that I'm very impressed with the speed of the new JavaScript engine. Loading Gmail and the MysteryByte Forums was like a night and day difference from what I was using before; which was version 3.1 I believe.

*Edit* I just wanted to add the feeling I'm getting right now is the same one I had over 10 years ago when I first switched from Dial-Up to Cable internet. Maybe the difference won't be so dramatic at home as it is here for me at work but wow.

Very nice thus far.

MB forums seem faster but for me Gmail is still slow. May just be my net connection acting up .. will try it tomorrow and see how it is.

I installed it on both my home systems and the change was very noticeable here as well. TraceMonkey did not disappoint and the new HTML 5 features seem well implemented with what I've seen - mostly just the <video> tag.
