• Best New Extension Overall: Reveal — Allows you to see thumbnails of pages in your session history and quickly find the page you want.
• Best Upgraded Extension: Web Developer — An essential extension for any Web developer/designer as it provides a raft of incredibly useful features all under one roof.
• Best Use of New Firefox 1.5 Features: Firefox Showcase — Locate and select any open browser window in Firefox.

In addition, eight more Best in Class winners have been awarded prizes for New and Upgraded extensions in these categories:

• Most Innovative
• Most Useful
• Best User Experience
• Best Integration with a Web Service

Grand prize winners receive an Alienware Aurora 7500 Firefox Edition PC. Best in Class winners receive an Apple iPod Nano and a $250 Gift Certificate from O'Reilly. All winners get Firefox 1.5 Prize Packs which include a t-shirt, cap, and laptop bag.

If you were thinking the only reward for developing open-source software is that warm, fuzzy feeling, have a look at that Alienware PC. Then maybe it will be time to dust off your JavaScript, XUL and RDF skills and get to work on that killer new extension.
