3: It's Almost Ready!
For the past
couple of weeks, news about Firefox 3 has been spreading like wildfire
all over the Web. Users have been desperately trying to figure out when
it will be released and more importantly, how much longer they'll have
to wait. Several posts have been made on WorldStart's message board
about it as well and since it seems like so many of you are invested
in the new version of the popular Web browser, I thought I'd give you
a little update of my own. Check it out!
From what I
can see, it looks like the final version of Firefox 3 will be released
very soon. On April 2, 2008 (just this past Wednesday), Firefox
3 Beta 5 was released and it sounds like it will be the last
one before the full version makes its debut. Of course, the beta versions
are meant for testing purposes only, but with five betas under their
belt, it looks as if Mozilla is almost ready for the launch. According
to a Reuters report, "Mozilla's development team has deemed the
newest version of their very popular browser all but fit for mass consumption."
Sounds promising to me!
Although
a final release date has not been scheduled yet, there are rumors going
around that the full version should be ready sometime in the second
quarter of 2008. Mozilla just needs a little more time for further testing
and to perfect it for all of you avid users out there. It sounds like
the Beta 5 will focus mostly on the visual aspects of the browser, as
well as, stability and security. So, don't fret! Firefox 3 is almost
ready and it will be here soon. And I promise, it will be well worth
your wait!
