We love Firefox at APPLEBOX. We use it on our in-store iMacs, and it’s developer features reign supreme when creating next gen web apps such as APPLEBOX. But Firefox 2 is now getting long in the tooth .. Safari has emerged as lean and fast, Opera is also quick, IE7 is even looking ok next to Firefox 2.

Enter stage left .. Firefox 3. It’s finally being released next Tuesday and the Mozilla crew are trying to create a world record for the most software downloads in a single day.

For those of you that jumped the gun and have been playing with the Firefox 3 beta .. you will notice APPLEBOX isn’t quite ready for it. Yep, we do have some some layout issues with FF3 at the mo. But rest assured I’m on the case and will have a release by Monday night that will have us Firefox 3 ready. So go on .. pledge your support for the download world record like we have!

UPDATE
With timezone differences, download day for us Aussies begins Wednesday 3am, actually on the 18th (oops). All the timezone variations are here.
