Mozilla to Develop Mobile Firefox

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Wednesday October 10, 2007 @07:27AM from the practice-makes-perfect dept.

Kelson writes "Mozilla has announced a new initiative to bring Mozilla to the mobile web, including a fully functional mobile version of Firefox (yes, with extensions). The focus will be part of Mozilla 2, the big revision coming after Gecko 1.9 and Firefox 3. Minimo, the previous attempt to port Mozilla to mobile platforms, is apparently dead, but 'has already provided us with valuable information about how Gecko operates in mobile environments, has helped us reduce footprint, and has given us a platform for initial experimentation in user experience.'"

What about Opera?!? by kyshtock · 2007-10-10 07:49 · Score: 0, Offtopic

Probably the best beer... pardon, browser in the world!
There is an Opera mobile browser available, and it acts quite nice. And it's here already!
However, downloadable extensions might be something interesting - if they are usefull on the smallish screen.
