this is what mozilla had to say:

-This release candidate is now available in more than 70 languages - get your local version.

-Improved tools for controlling your private data, including a Private Browsing Mode.

-Better performance and stability with the new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine.

-The ability to provide Location Aware Browsing using web standards for geolocation.

-Support for native JSON, and web worker threads.

-Improvements to the Gecko layout engine, including speculative parsing for faster content rendering.

-Support for new web technologies such as: HTML5 and elements, downloadable fonts and other new CSS properties, JavaScript query selectors, HTML5 offline data storage for applications, and SVG transforms.

9 Amazing New Features of Firefox 3.5!
(from maximumpc.com)

1) Private Browsing Mode:
All traces of your surfing history are eradicated(removed) once you close the browser or exit the private session.

2) Websites Get Identified:
Websites now come with an identity overview giving you quick access to a site's security certificate.

3) Retrieve Recently Closed Tabs and Windows:
Firefox 3.5 adds the ability to reopen Recently Closed Windows via the History button.

4) Video Support is Augmented:
without a plugin, you can watch any video that is encoded using Ogg Theora. In addition, depending on the video source, you can right-click and save the video clip to your hard drive.

5) Firefox Becomes Location Aware:
Previously available as a plug-in, location-aware browsing comes built into Firefox 3.5, which has raised some privacy concerns. However, it's up to you whether or not you want to share your location when a website requests it.

6) Automatic Font Formating:
Starting in 3.5, Firefox automatically downloads and installs whatever font the website was coded to display, so sites will look just as their developers intended.

7) Better Manage your Add-ons:
With the new integrated Add-ons Manager, you can search for, and install, extensions without opening a new tab or window to visit the add-ons website.

8) Tear Away Tabs:
you can now tear away tabs into a new browser window simply by dragging and dropping the transparent tab anywhere outside of the tab bar.

9) Colors are Corrected:
Both JPG and PNG images support color profiles, and when utilized, you should be able to see a picture just as the photographer saw it, no matter what device you're using, be it a CRT or LCD monitor.
