Firefox Mobile - Review

,----[ Quote ]
| The N900 is my handheld of choice and as 
| I've stated before it is by far the web 
| browsing phone currently on the market. The 
| most wonderful thing about FOSS is choice, 
| just like a desktop computer the N900 
| provides you with a variety of web browsers 
| to choose from and the Mozilla cooperation 
| choose Maemo as the first platform to 
| release their mobile browser for. I've been 
| using firefox as the primary browser on my 
| N900 since just prior to it's 1.0 release, 
| the following are my summations of what I 
| think of Mozilla's mobile browser.
| 
| [...]
| 
| All in all I think firefox mobile is the 
| best browser currently available for the 
| Maemo platform and thanks to the browser-
| switchboard it is the default browser on my 
| device.

Firefox 1.1 Beta sails onto the Nokia N900 mobile phone

,----[ Quote ]
| The Nokia N900 handset is based on the 
| Linux-based Maemo platform and is also noted 
| to be dubbed as a pocket computer. With the 
| trendy phone, users can seamlessly carry out 
| all their online activities from their 
| mobile device itself. Now Firefox is all set 
| to grace the handset terrain by unfurling 
| Firefox 1.1 Beta onto the Nokia N900.

Firefox challenges Facebook with ID platform

,----[ Quote ]
| Facebook's ambition to become a default 
| identification platform for the web could be 
| threatened by an in-browser identity 
| management system from Mozilla. The firm 
| behind second-placed browser Firefox is 
| testing an open-source system called Account 
| Manager, which unlike Facebook's platform 
| will allow users to switch between 
| identities from different services.

Can't Program, won't Program? Then Mash the Web with Mozilla's Ubiquity

,----[ Quote ]
| Mozillaâs Firefox browser has been 
| downloaded more that one billion times and 
| its success is reflected in the millions of 
| downloads of one of its killer features: 
| addons (or extensions, as we geriatrics 
| called them).

Fennec on Android

,----[ Quote ]
| Over the last few months, we've made some
| great progress on bringing Firefox to
| Android.  Michael Wu, Brad Lassey, Alex
| Pakhotin and I have been focusing on
| getting a build ready that's usable by a
| broader set of people, and we're now ready
| to get that build out there.
