Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 available on Mozilla FTP

Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 is available for download from Mozilla's developer FTP site, according to Brazilian enthusiast site Blog.MacMagazine. Blogger Rafael Fischmann reports that a casual browse of Mozilla's public FTP server revealed the latest beta, which sports a very Mail-inspired, but slender interface. The popular browser takes a few design cues from other Apple applications as well, with the URL field resembling that of iPhoto's search field.

Fischmann hypothesizes that, based on what he sees, it appears to be a final implementation of the beta before it reaches Gold Master, or distributable status. He estimates that Mozilla will have finalized the Firefox 3 code by April 2008.

Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 has supposedly been available for approximately eight days.
