What are the benefits of Camino when Mac users can just use Firefox? Especially when Firefox 3 comes out.

Yes — I have to echo Mark’s question. I also don’t see any reference made to page scaling which FF3v5b has. That is SO refined!! Aside from my last version of Camino (1.5) being quite nimble, there doesn’t seem to be any BIG reasons to switch.
