I'm on v1.5.0.7 - and on automatic updates. Why am I not on 2.0? Even doing a manual "check for updates", it says I'm up to date.
Yeah, I know I can download and install 2.0... I'm just curious as to what's up with it saying 1.5 is "up to date"...

They haven't added it to the automatic updates yet for some reason. I've been using 2.0 for 2 weeks now and it's stable and most plug-ins and add-ons are compatible.

Are there any new goodies?. or is there anything that stands out as better than 1.5?

Not a huge difference I'll admit. I like the close buttons on each tab versus the one at the far right hand side in 1.5. The History function is beefed up with the addition a "Restore closed tabs" feature. The "Session Restore" has proved useful to me last night when a reboot caught me offguard.

Boy, I NEED that restore closed tabs feature! I too often click "close other tabs" when I mean to click on "close tab". Off to download 2.0!
