OK, this is pretty impressive. Almost all of the 26 Firefox extensions I have installed at home are already ready for 2.0.
Only seven extensions I currently have installed are not ready. Of these two are just frills (Shazou and Timetracker). Spelling is built in, so I won't need Spellbound.
Of the other four that are not yet ready, there is one which I'll certainly miss but can manage without (Autofill). There is really only one showstopper -- TabMix Plus. And the developer of that says he needs a week or so to get it ready. So it looks like I will only have to wait a week or so to upgrade to 2.0.
Here's the list of what I use with info on upgrade status drawn from the amazing Bill's Big List of Firefox® 2.0 Compatible Extensions

I REALIZE THAT FIREFOX 2 IS GOING TO BE RELEASE ON TUESDAY, OCTOBER 24. A NEW VERSION OF TAB MIX PLUS IS GOING TO BE RELEASE SHORTLY AFTER THAT, IN LESS THAN A WEEK. PLEASE BE PATIENT, FOR NOW YOU CAN TRY THIS VERSION EARLY.

I installed 2.0 this afternoon. So far I am impressed, and only a couple of my extensions didn't work. I am still waiting for well rounded, copy plain text, tabmix plus, and back is close. I am really surprised that google browser sync worked, as did the modern pinball theme (no longer updated on the mozilla website). When I installed the upgrade, all of my settings, bookmarks and tweaks transferred with it. It is a nice improvement to an already great program. Now I am just waiting for the gaim 2.0 upgrade.
