I want to be excited by this, but FF is just no longer a compelling browser option for me anymore. I recently had it installed only for Firebug, but now that Chrome and Safari have embedded reasonable developer tools, I feel like I don't have any need for another browser. I know the FF team is planning on a more continuous update cycle, but I wonder if it may be too late.
I don't have any specific features in mind, really. Being on OSX, I can't opt out of Safari. Chrome is my main browser because it feels fast, and rarely causes me pain. Safari is my backup. I just don't have a need for a third browser, and the first two slots are taken. One by default, and one because it's a great piece of software.
RC1 has been very stable for me so far, no crashes or instabilities even with beta addons (Firebug). Upgraded from 3.6 about a week ago.
Looks like Mozilla taking their time with this release wasn't completely unjustified. I just hope the overall quality won't decrease when they start to shorten their release cycles.
