Very surprisingly, Netscape has already released the eagerly-awaited Netscape 7.1 (previously known by its codename, ''Buffy'') for Windows, Mac OS and Linux. The new version is based on Mozilla 1.4, which is due out later today. Netscape 7.1 features many improvements over 7.02 including even better CSS support, spam filters, find-as-you-type, automatic image resizing, more customization via about:config, Web development tools, Palm synchronization and more. More information can be found at Netscape Browser Central and in this MozillaZine article. The release is available from Netscape''s download page, via FTP or on CD.
I'm quite surprised that Netscape released that quickly their browser successor, and that they didn't label it 8.0. If you're using Netscape 7, you really should consider the upgrade. The spam filters are wonderfull in the mail client !
