“Right now, you can only save a session if Firefox crashes.”

Blatantly false. Feature has existed in FF2 for a while.
Go to Tools –> Options –> Main tab
Under “When Firefox starts:” choose “Show my windows and tabs from last time.”

Although most people don’t know about this feature and having a dialogue box certainly gives it more visibility, it certainly is not a new feature in any respect.

@Ashfame,
Not sure when the final version will be out, there are still lots of issues to be solved.

Here’s a toast to hoping that next versions of Firefox will be lighter and getting rid of useless ‘features’ like caching hundreds of previously visited pages

Thanks for the heads up Nirmal. Looking forward to downloading the new version and I am interested in the OS integration like improved print options in Linux.

“Another good feature added is that when you try to close multiple tabs or close a browser session with multiple tabs open, Firefox will ask if you want to save your session”

Hmm… This feature was present in Beta 2 also…
