Default Firefox 3

Anybody upgraded yet, I don't like doing it until it's completed for release but I've heard the performance on windows is tons better

Yeah, i've got it on my desktop pc and it's great, i really like it. It's out of beta and now it's in release candidate so there's no reason not to switch unless your extensions aren't compatible with it yet.
I'm waiting until i finish college on the 13th before i upgrade my laptop. Can't risk anything screwing up until then.

I've been using 3 for a long time, and I must say I looove it. If some of your extensions aren't compatible, grab the one called Nightly Tester Tools, you can force them on with it.

I'm LOVING 3.. only a couple minor glitches.. I was able to find new extensions for just about everything I use ( had to go to the site not use the update feature). And it is definitely faster.
Minor glitches include the occasional https sites that need to be manually authorized, that's about it.

I've also switched. I wasn't convinced by the new searchable address bar at first, but it seems to adapt and learn the sites you regularly visit and I love it now!
