I don't want to beat this to death, but...

I installed Warty yesterday -- my first-ever foray in any Debian-based
distribution. (I started on a large stack of Slackware floppies *way*
back in 1994, but have mostly been a Red Hat/Fedora user since). I
love it.
However, Firefox 0.9.3? Yuck. I've gotten quite attached to the newer
features, such as the RSS button (I use it to subscribe to my
bookmarks on del.icio.us, for example). I see others have installed
it in home/$user/bin, but that's not really a solution. We have six
other people using this computer (wife and kids) and I don't want to
have to maintain this by hand for everyone.
Since I don't know anything about Debian, this may be a dumb question:
Will I have to become a beta tester for Hoary before I can use the
latest Firefox, or will I be able to stick to this nice stable base
and pluck the latest version out of a development branch in a
repository?
