I am really disappointed from Firefox. It is my favorite browser on PC. On N900 is very slow. And how to configure it ? Where is options tab ?

Hopefully this will get working a bit better soon. There is a video somewhere of some dev guys using it and its faster than the built in browser but then i suppose they cant release it unitll everthing has been tested properly.
As said inalot of posts on here and elsewhere about the n900, if your gonna add the extras-devel and extras-testing repositories (plus other alpha/beta/RC/non official releases) then you will have to be willing to put up with issues in speed and stability. If not then just stick to the two that are enabled on the phone when you had it and wiat for the to show up.

sounds like you guys on the n900 got the shaft. while not the best, it is certainly not useless or dogslow on the n810 and certainly more compatible with websites than the built-in browser --- other than gmail, of course. it just needs further optimization, google bookmarks, and copy/ paste features.

How about playing video content outside the browser?

Works like a dream on my N810 also - really like it.
Geolocation also works on it, which it don't on microb....

But having said that, the Mobile Firefox is even worse. I can also hear the sound well but I cannot use video controls at all and video is slide show which changed few times in minute.
But it doesn't really freeze my tablet. Scrolling of the page works like charm when playing video.

While Firefox on the N900 is painfully slow right now, I'm pretty confident that it will improve.
Meanwhile the default browser is imo excellent. That's the irony of this: we are pretty soon going to have two high quality browers while we may be lacking in some other areas.

it's slow when loading. i believe the default browser is resident in the memory while Firefox have to load MB of data to memory.
