I downloaded and installed FF3 since I heard such great things about it.
Within hours, I trashed it and reinstalled FF2.
The first couple of hours I used FF3, it was fine. But when I tried to
put the history list in the side panel, the word "history" appeared at
the top of the panel, but my bookmarks remained in the display. I could
see my history list from the "History" item in the menu, but couldn't
display or search it in the side panel.
I posted a note in the FF forum, asking if this was a known bug. Someone
suggested I make sure that feature was turned on in FF Preferences. I
clicked on FF, Preferences, and nothing happened. No dialog, no message.
Nada!
I dumped it. I'm back to FF2 until they have another release to fix it
so it at least half way works on a Mac.
Just wanted to let people know that at least in some cases, FF3 for Mac
is not ready for prime time. Or even cable. Of course, YMMV.

I have no complaints with it, but I turn off autocomplete and
superfluous toolbars.
