Has anyone tried it yet? I hate being in the first wave of users when the application is critical to my daily work. Love to hear comments...

I have this existing problem with firefox,

Like when it opens up it takes very long to load,

Opera and Internet explorer don't have this problem.

Nothing to do with the speed of my computer as well as I just upgraded it like 1 month ago.

Ive all ready tried to tweak the settings but still no go =((

Is it still slow in Safe Mode (shortcut in Start menu)?
