"Much faster, but missing a few things"
Version: Mozilla Firefox 3 beta 1
Pros
I like that it allows users to browse much faster.
Cons
For one, I can't use Real Player to download videos with Firefox 3. That has to be fixed!!! Also, I would like to see new skin designs for the browser. It would make browsing the internet so much more pleasant than looking at something plain. Overall, despite missing a few key things, Firefox 3 has a lot of promise. I'm not jumping for joy just yet.
