The downloading links for desktop need to update its path to 4.0b5.  Currently they point to 4.0b4.  

(eg. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b4/win32-i686/fennec-4.0b4.en-US.win32.zip)

    Windows
    Mac OS X
    Linux

Not releasenotes page, but for http://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/platforms/. 

we should add a bullet under Android saying:
* Firefox 4 Beta 5 requires 512 MB of RAM

That being said, if this is just a Beta 5 attribute, it should go in rel notes.

that bullet about 512MB is already in the b5 relnotes. makes sense to have it in two places.
