    this looked interesting… until i was heard it included an “awesome bar”…

    Looks amazing really, but like others have said, it’s slow. I realize this is an alpha, not even a beta, so I’m still hopeful. I’m a big fan of mozilla, and I’m eagerly awaiting the official release.

    @lilTitan Apple won’t let them put it on the appstore, as it is a competitor for Safari.

    @MrKevin001111 it’s really buggy. it took me to find a version that would work. when i tried to download it it kept downloading the nokia version which was the wrong format. try getting a copy from softpedia. it works great though just a little buggy and slow which should be fixed soon hopefully.

  7. MrKevin001111 says:

    @dilipepper I do and when it “successfully” install i try to open it and it just closes after a second or two and goes back to my home screen.

    it does work on the D1 its just slow/laggy bc its alpha by the time its on the market ir will be on a par with Dolphin (currently the best imo)
    @561DontFuckRound lol the D1 is not a horrible device it does alot more than some other, & newer, phones

    @MrKevin001111 this is not in the android market. you have to go to the website to download it.

  11. leodamascus says:

    Not bad for a first alpha build. I’m going to keep watching this.

  12. SkippyTheGoat says:

  14. goofball33 says:

  15. formber says:

  16. hiromiao says:

    @formber its not on market yet due the fact it is still beta. But just google android firefox. And it’ll take u to the apk file u can download.

  17. formber says:

    This is not coming up in the Market on my Droid. Anyone know why?

  18. lukewilko says:

    @KoolKluxKlan666 iphone has “firefox home” not the same as a full browser application.

  19. KoolKluxKlan666 says:

    @IIXRATEDIIHiTMAN Firefox is available for iphone, dipshit.

  20. tical2399 says:

    @rgrmatt69 I rarely use CDMA handsets, so now you know :P 

  24. AndrewTopsAll says:

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am trying to get a lot of subscribes. I review and do other techy stuff, But adding some comedy along with it. Check me out.

  25. rgrmatt69 says:

    @Techdude201 You are thinking of EC/I0. Signal strength doesn’t really mean much as long as you have a signal. I thought you were a “techdude” lol.

  26. Techdude201 says:

    @rgrmatt69 Lol you didn’t had to call me a moron, and yes it does

    I have Fennec loaded on my HTC Desire. You’re right, it is a very early version of the application & it is difficult to use for an extended period.

    One of the key add-ons for Fennec I was keen to see was “Adblock Plus” – I have a difficult time justifying paying premium 3G roaming prices for advertising…
