Mozilla Prepping a Mobile Firefox Browser May 11, 2007

Looks like our favorite Web browser is about to go mobile. Mozilla head honcho, Mitchell Baker, told the folks at APC magazine that Mozilla is working on a Firefox to go for your cellphone. It's a long-term project (meaning it's not coming out any time soon), but the goal is to allow it to work with all the add-ons and plug-ins that the full version works with. As long as it works on my smartphone, sign me up. – Louis Ramirez

There's not many people who would disagree that Firefox browsers offer a richer web experience than their poor paid-for counterparts.
This particular development signals what I hope will be a movement towards much-needed open source democracy on the mobile internet. Perhaps the quality of Firefox will enable users to enhance their mobile web experience. I certainly hope so.

I love Firefox - but they'll need to sort out the memory creep it has for it to work on a phone/pda.
There allready is firefox for pda called Mozilla Minimo, so its not strange that they will make it for mobile phones.
