AOL abandoning the Netscape browser (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7163547.stm) - no surprises there then given that they sacked most of the coders a while back.

Only thing that ****es me off about FF is the memory leaks i.e. leave it idle and it'll gobble up loads of memory.

Really sad to see the old champ navigator die, but its been coming the last few years.. and tbh the browser wasnt that good ;)
Ye the memory issues can be a pain, but they are supposed to fix it in the final FF3 release
