Mozilla is expected to release its Firefox 3.5 browser on Tuesday morning, a company representative said on Friday afternoon.

A key feature of the browser is the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, which boosts performance and stability. Indeed, speed has been stressed as a key attraction of the upgrade.A Private Browsing Model is highlighted as well, for control of private data. HTML 5 capabilities are included in such areas as encoded video.

A downloadable release candidate for version 3.5 was released Monday, following beta and preview releases this month.

There is a tweak for Firefox to have private browsing. I suppose people just do not know about it.
My service is set to download the latest version. I like Firefox a lot but lately, for this site only, I have
been using Iron browser. It is really fast and one can surf without leaving tracks for Google.

Private Browsing is in just about every browser now days, yes. The closed window features, video features, location aware browsing and the other ones he mentioned are only in few if any at all. Not to mention the speed of 3.5 is going to be amazing compared to other versions.
