Does anyone know why Mozilla released a major update so soon after releasing version 4?
Firefox 5?

Seeing as how Chrome sucks (I do admit it sucks a lot less than IE), I kind of doubt it.
Looks like it is more of a Firefox 4.1 instead of a completely new edition. It seems that the main reason for it's relatively-fast release was due to API stability issues with FF4. More below:

I don't see any major changes since I got this new update
This is why most PC-based review sites are calling this Firefox 4.1 rather than Firefox 5...just minor visual changes; but some moderate to major changes in the under-the-hood department.

My main issue was a few of my add-on's weren't compatible, but thankfully, my MultiRow Bookmarks still worked. I would've been super-pissed if it had stopped working.
However, there was a silver lining. I had just recently started using FastDial and loved it, but it stopped working and I'm glad it did. After that, I went surfing and discovered SpeedDial. It is awesome! It is far superior to FastDial. If anyone decides to give it a try, I'd recommend using Google to find and watch the tutorial video. It's a great add-on.
