Just wondering what everyone thinks of Firefox 2 so far and what are everyone's favourite Firefox add-on's?

As I'm typing this, there is a built in spell checker (although I've had to change it to the British version of English) which seems quite useful. Haven't really noticed much else yet, although I imagine a lot of the security stuff is going on behind the scenes.

Just started playing with add-on's and wonder what everyone else recommends, i've got Fire-FTP installed, and ForecastFox for keeping weather information in my tool bar for the local area.

Going to have a play round with some of the others and see what's good.

I'm not using Firefox 2.0 yet, but I will soon enough.

I use these add-ons:

FasterFox (tweaks the network/browsersettings)
RedirectRemover (useful for some sites that keeps redirecting when clicking a link)
VideoDownloader (excellent for downloading videos from Youtube etc.)
Adblock Plus (great add-remover, doesn't hog resources like the non-plus version)
IEview (for quick access to show the current page in IE)

FoxyTunes. Interfaces with WinAmp so you can control it through the top bar of Firefox. Have had it since 1.2 I love it.

Not using Firefox 2 yet, but I have these extensions:

FlashGot - No description needed.
Gmail Notifier - Enables quick access to your Gmail account by just one click.
Fasterfox - Tweaks speed and stuff.
Image Zoom - Enables zooming in and out without having to paste images in Paint, Photoshop or whatever.
FireFTP - Never used it, but I suppose it can be useful when needed.

FireFTP

So far i like Firefox 2.0, had to get used to the new way tabs are handled but i like it better this way.

it annoys me that the tabs are have to be closed differently, tough to get used to it.
Also, why does it underline the text i am writing ?

spellcheck

And I miss the abe vigoda status add on I used to have, it was sweet. I also don't like not having that x at the right side of the tabs that I could just click fast and close all my tabs.
