Mozilla is keeping any official schedule very tightly behind closed doors because they don't want to be criticized for being late. They are estimating sometime in the first quarter of 2008 though (I think that's what I read). Dkong wrote:

We didn't start seeing the new features roll in until Alpha 4 or 5, because before then they were working on the new rendering engine. I believe that was worth it though as well, because pages load faster and there is now the real page zoom capabilities. Anonymous wrote:

I don't think they were actually planning to make some sort of bookmark synchronization built-in though. I think they plan on getting a backend implemented for that so extensions can work off it.
