Where's "Options" in the N900's Firefox?

On the left there's an Add-on (puzzle piece) button and a Preferences (2 sliders) button.

From Add-on/Sync there's an options button, but that just shows 2 more buttons:
Disconnect
Sync Now

There's no hint of all the items in the PC version. :-(

Options=Preferences=Settings
for me
(In Fennec 2 Sync is included into browser, and there is textbox Options->Sync->Secret Phrase; but it's alpha, and crashes frequently, at least for me; so please, don't try installing this alpha until you have all the bookmarks backup-ed)

Where did you enter Secret Phrase into Fennec when you synced Fennec first time? Try to look for it here.

Edit: I'm going to ask question on
http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla-labs-weave
about this problem.

That's correct, and hopefully Firefox 2.0 for Maemo/MeeGo will be using the same "faststart" pre-loading once https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572329 is ironed out.

I faced some laggy browsing with 1.1. I realized there was some junk from last version 1.0 because my add-ons and bookmarks were still in place after installing 1.1. I wanted a fresh start so i backed up and removed /home/opt/mozilla/fennec folder and then reinstalled 1.1 which has quite a decent performance now.

Still I hope 2.0 brings faster scrolling and rendering and mouse cursor support.

Too long ago. If I could remember that much I'd be able to remember the phrase... :-)

My mysty recollection was that it was a popup request box, but Ireally couldn't say.

4. Need to change these 2 (scroll down a bit):
plugin.default_plugin_disabled
and
plugin.disable

5. Tap on each one (or use the arrow keys) and hit enter. This will change the value from true to false.
6. Close Firefox and restart.
Must I change it in true or false?

I HATE the secret phrase feature! As if I care so much about the security of my bookmarks that I need TWO password like features. I am always forgetting my secret phrase, so my browser treats me like a spy...

I don't see the purpose. If it's to create a seed for encryption, you'd think the ID&Password+(some other fixed elements) would be sufficient.
