Mobile Firefox Browser in the works

by DJ Neawedde | 11th May 2007

Mozilla CEO Mitchell Baker has just told APC Magazine about a mobile version of Firefox in the works. No word on any release date as Baker stated this is a “long‑term move”.

The Mozilla CEO also says, “We have an experiment underway which is clearly a PC-centric experiment related to mobiles (so this is not a pure mobile strategy), but we are experimenting with the relationship between Firefox users and their mobile devices.”

Looking at Opera’s current position in the mobile and even game console markets, this is an imperative move for Firefox. Check out Mozilla’s Minimo project, which is basically “a small version of Firefox with many of the same features offered.” for mobile devices.
