Firefox 2.0 Posted a Day Early

A number of readers alerted us to the [link removed] day-early [accidental] posting of Firefox version 2.0. At this writing the top page at mozilla.com still doesn't mention its availability. One reader pointed us to [link removed] a mirror and another recommended a comprehensive review of Firefox 2.0, with many screenshots, over at mozillalinks.org. Update by RM: - links above removed at request of Mozilla release people. They asked us to link to this note instead. They're only asking us to wait until Tuesday Afternoon (U.S. Pacific Time) for the official 2.0 download, which isn't long. (Patience is a virtue, etc.)

en-US version

Note that the link is for the en-GB version. A lot of Slashdotters may prefer the en-US version.

(Note that I haven't actually tested that file, since I'm on a Mac right now; I just changed the URL and made it a link for all you lazy people. If you have problems with letting me karma whore, mod me funny; I want this link to be visible, so I'm keeping the karma bonus.)

BitTorrent Link to FireFox

Why not use BitTorrent? This is the best legal use for it.

Download FireFox here

Here's the US Flavour

Spell checkers don't check usage. "new" is a correctly spelled word.

Haha I wrote that on 1.5 See? I need a checker.

The catch here is that was a grammatical error, not a spelling error, so a spell checker won't even know that you meant to use 'knew' instead of 'new'.
