Pledge for Firefox 3

I was browsing through the net and found the link about Firefox 3 that wants to achieve as
the most software downloads in 24 hours on a Guinness Book World Record 2008

It sounds interesting since it means that this latest version of Firefox has better performance rather than the current version. Frankly speaking, I got some bugs in the current version. When I open too many tabs, the navigation box (place where you type on the URL link) on the browser will only show the latest link that I have typed. For example, I opened yahoo, google, friendster, facebook & my monash. So, my current tab is my monash, then when I switched the tab back to yahoo, the navigation box would show up as "my.monash.edu.au" instead of "yahoo.com". Furthermore, the 'Back', 'Forward' & 'Refresh' buttons also can not work. It's so so so irritating when I did some researches for my assignments and it was so so important to keep the references link..

Another bug is the 'Find' option. This option should assist me in finding some keywords quickly, but sometimes it did not work well..

I really hope that the latest version of Firefox can fix this bug.. Really waiting for the download day since it has not been announced yet..

For those of you who wants to join this, click on this link and press 'Pledge Now' button, enter your region and email address, then you will be notified when the download day is decided :)
