You can download a binary from www.mozilla.org.  It's not a RPM, but
here's what I did to install and play with it.  Download the zipped tar
file.  Unzip it in your home directory.  Open a terminal and change to
root.

Move it to /usr/lib.  Then you will need to write a quick script
in /usr/bin that simply calls the sunbird script in /usr/lib/sunbird.
Don't link the script to /usr/bin because it will exit out with some
errors.
