I found that almost all extensions I use worked with 2 beta 1 after using nightly tester tools to force them to install. Only one I recall not working was tab mix plus. I plan on switching to beta 2 as my primary once it is out (I usually check out beta 1 but don't switch to it). Best thing to do if you are unsure is to look in bugzilla to see what known bugs there are for it, and if they are critical to your needs.
I love my Opera more than anything, but I will be testing this; I mean you can't critique a application without first putting it through its paces. Never say I'm not fair :wink:

So, Beta 2 RC2 was stable enough to become a fully pledged Beta 2?

Firefox Beta 2 is far different from Firefox 2.0 Beta 2. The summary contradicts the title.
