Firefox 4 Delayed: Late 2010/Early 2011

Firefox 4.0 is set to have a later release date than expected. In fact, it could be pushed back to over a year from now – the thoughts of waiting over a year are dreadful! Even Firefox 3.6 is being set back to the end of the first quarter of 2010. Question is, why?

Firefox 3.6 bringing some cool features to do with accelerometer support and customization is being released ‘at the end of the first quarter of 2010′, even after its planned end-of-2009 release. I don’t particularly care – but the big punch is Firefox 4.0′s release, being pushed back nearly 6 months. With a slick Chrome-like interface that abuses the Aero look, and some great new features particularly with screen space saving and separating tabs into individual processes, Firefox 4 promises a lot – and better not just be a whole ton of hype from Mozilla that they can’t supply. But an extra unprecedented 6 months? Eh.

Here’s a screenshot of the new proposed UI.

Well, eh.
