After having troubles getting MultiClutch to work with Firefox 3.0.4, I tried the new Firefox 3.1b2 in hopes that my (aluminum) MacBook could use the trackpad gestures within Firefox. I was somewhat disappointed. I actually have no idea what else is new in Firefox 3.1b2 -- I was only trying it out because of the new gestures feature.

Pros (for me):
-Can now use gestures in Firefox. As a MacBook owner I feel this is almost necessary.

Cons (for me):
-The finger-twist gesture is supposed to go forward & backward between tabs. Instead a sporadic tab-changing event occurs ... only rarely does it change exactly one tab over per finger-twist.
-When trying to zoom-in/zoom-out, sometimes the tab-changing finger-twist action is activated by accident.
