  1. Zoom is STILL broken by dnaumov · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I can't believe they still haven't fixed zoom. There are only 2 options "zoomed in" and "zoomed out", there is no in-between. There is no clockwise/counter-clockwise gesture to adjust zoom level like in MicroB. Uninstalled.

  2. Re:Any plans for a Symbian version? by drinkypoo · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Symbian could be nice, but it seems like targeting MeeGo would be a better bet, especially as they already have a Maemo version done and MeeGo is the heir apparent for Symbian.

    The real question is why bother to bring out a version for Maemo when Maemo is an evolutionary dead end, that will have no future versions? MeeGo is the replacement for Maemo! Typical Mozilla timing... well behind where it needs to be. I was playing with beta of a mobile firefox on Windows Mobile 2003. It more or less worked. AFAICT all that work was simply discarded in favor of a new project? Would very much like to be told I am wrong with specifics.
