VimFx too - It's basically a clone of Vimium for Firefox, meaning it alters Firefox far less than Vimperator/Pentadactyl. There was previously a Firefox add-on that shared the name Vimium, but it doesn't seem to be maintained anymore.

Also KeySnail for Firefox: https://github.com/mooz/keysnail/wiki

It calls itself Emacs-like, but true to Emacs form, one of the default configurations gives Vim-like bindings instead of Emacs ones.

IMHO pentadactyl is the most usable of the lot. Webkit has some awful quirks with certain websites. Duolingo doesn't play audio at all.

pentadactyl seems to be dead these days(hasn't worked in the last several Firefox releases), so for Firefox i moved back to vimperator.

It's just their build system and S3 setup that's broken. I make Pentadactyl builds nightly for anyone who wants to use them, located here[0].
