flash takes time to load certain pages so it slows it down.. no flash faster download of the page.

I re-installed this yesterday as everyone was getting so excited and indeed it was a bit faster. But today they pushed out another Mozilla Runtime update that completely breaks Firefox's functionality. What gives? IMO, this should be in Extras-Devel or Extras-Testing, especially if an update breaks it.

I'm on nightlies, and with the latest 20100128 runtime it wouldn't start for me, so I uninstalled Firefox (which had the orange Firefox logo) and went to reinstall Firefox but could only find Fennec 20100128 (with the blue Fennec logo) so I installed that and now it's working again but I can't say I'm that impressed by the speed.

Firefox/Fennec RC1 is in a Mozilla hosted repository, and since it's not actually released yet (it's marked as "Beta" on www.mozilla.com/mobile/) if you didn't want to help with the testing you shouldn't have installed it! :)

I believe the one I downloaded this morning was RC3.

This is the repository from where Fennec/XulRunner is pulled when you follow the "Beta" link on http://www.mozilla.com/mobile/ - no RC3, just a mixture of RC1 and non-RC1 debs.

And this is the nightly repository - again no RC3 (or even RC1).

I stand corrected about its repository location, BUT, how can I test it if it won't even run?

Have you reinstalled the main application (Firefox or Fennec, whatever it's called on your device)? My guess is that you have a version of Firefox/Fennec on your device that isn't compatible with the latest runtime.
