FirefoxI’m really looking forward to trying out Firefox mobile when it’s released. Below is a video that highlights what Firefox mobile can do.

Swiping left and right to see the controls is a great idea since space is very limited. And the AwesomeBar sounds, well, awesome! I really like the idea of Weave Sync as well. This technology syncs your mobile, work desktop, home desktop, etc. for a seamless transition in web browsing. Location-Aware browsing sounds pretty amazing. It’s like having Yelp for topics you’re browsing on! Check out the video for more features.

Meet some of the members of the Mozilla Mobile Team as they give you a quick tour of the user interface and features of Firefox for mobile devices, including the Awesome Bar, Weave Sync, add-ons and tabbed browsing, to name a few.

    the market is just far to locked down now for me to say “this will work”. I'm interested to see how well the UI and experience of Firefox on the desktop will be on mobile.

    I think the iPhone's dominance (with built in Safari), and Google's Chrome OS coupling in a huge ubiquity within Google OS devices will prove far to difficult for Firefox to match and even get a fighting chance of being used on a mobile device!

    Firefox, stick to what you know best. No BS, quick as heck web browsing for the desktop :)

    How likely do you think it will be that Google lets Firefox onto the Google Chrome OS?! They've certainly already built a strong advertising partnership with Firefox. I think as far as Google's concerned, that will be it.

    It's almost like Firefox Mobile may go the way of Opera for Mobile, rarely used!
