Slashdot is reporting on problems with Firefox 2.0.
I like the new look of Firefox 2.0 but I can't say I've noticed any other noticeable improvements.
I have noticed new problems, however.
The one that is annoying me most is that, sometimes when I open a new tab the keyboard focus does not move to the address bar. Sounds trivial but is actually infuriating.
I still use Firefox as my default browser but IE7.0 is certainly going to give them a run for their money.

I'm so glad I read this before upgrading. That breaks my workflow enough enough to be a deal-breaker. Thanks! :)
Press 'F6'!
Thanks for the suggestion, David - I could also press ^L, but it doesn't help.... when I press ^T for a new tab, the focus should move IMMEDIATELY to the address bar. Not a second later, not two seconds later and certainly not only if I tell it to!
I agree with Anonymous.... it's close to being a deal breaker.
If you've got IE Tab installed you might want to read this - sounds like a bug in IE Tab may be the culprit.

Chris... good spot. Thanks for that.
Unfortunately, I don't have IE Tab :-(
Indeed, the only extension I've installed so far is RSSO.
I guess it could be that.... the annoying thing is that the problem is intermittent.
