Aren't there still problems with some applications, plugins for Firefox,

Yes, but there are 32-bit versions of FireFox and flash that work fine
on the x86_64 systems. I use 32-bit FireFox on my x86_64 system w/o a
problem.
Can you elaborate a little more on this?
I just recently installed 10.2 64-bit on a Sun Ultra 40 (dual amd 246
chips). I can install the i586 version of firefox, but it can't get
it to talk to the network at all. It's as if I don't even have a
plumbed ethernet interface. So firefox will run, but all attempts at
connecting to the internet fail. Reinstall the 64-bit version of
firefox, and I can browse no problem.
I have no such problem with the 32 bit versions of Firefox and Seamonkey
on my 64 bit system.
