- Group your tabs is a really cool feature
- Refresh button has moved to the right
- Book marking got a whole lot easier
- When pointing to a hyperlinked item, the address bar shows what the URL of the linked item is (quite cool)
- There is a new firefox sync in preferences to sync firefox across all devices
- The web console looks interesting, but nothing to beat Chrome's developer tools
There are many more, these are what I could see from my first impression. I'll try and post some interesting screenshots. I've also heard that the firefox 4 javscript engine is now one of the fastest engines (really cool!)
On my wish list, I have
- Better download manager
- Ability to do private and non-private browsing in parallel

It has been a while since I got rid of Firefox in favor of Chrome, mainly because of the excellent startup speed.
Regarding the download manager thing, Have you tried, "Downthemall " ? This is the only thing that I miss in Chrome from FF. (http://www.downthemall.net/)
BTW, one small grammar policing, you should be using "Its" instead of "it's" in your 2nd line :)
Thanks, corrected the grammar. I've tried downthemall, I'd like something like that to be integrated into firefox. Add-ons are good, but the default good ones should be integrated.
I think you can ask your distro people (openSUSE ? Fedora ? Debian ?) to package it by default. We ship a few addons like youtube-download etc. by default.
