A Mozilla spokesperson said the final release of the company’s latest web browser, version 3.5, will be available for download on Tuesday morning Pacific Time (Wednesday morning NZ time).

The upgrade just snakes in under Mozilla’s deadline wire of 30 June, although it’s six months after when it originally planned to release the browser.

Firefox 3.1 morphed into 3.5 earlier this year, partly as acknowledgement of the delays, and partly because enough new features were added on top of the current 3.0 version to warrant it.
