Apparently because I was downloading versions of Firefox 3 before it was officially released, I’ve been automatically enrolled in the Beta Testers Program.  Because of that, I was notified via a toaster notification tonight that Firefox 3.0.1 beta (build 1) is now available for testing.  I’m posting this from the new version, which identifies itself as follows:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1

If you aren’t a part of the Beta Testers Program you can download the new beta build, or if you’re just curious what it’s all about, you can head over to the mozilla.announce.prerelease newsgroup or take a look at the MozillaWiki page.  However, I’ve taken a look at both and I’m still not quite sure what the new release is all about.
