Firefox for mobile market in 2008

Firefox developer team has announced that they will bring the browser to the mobile market in 2008.

Mozilla will add mobile devices to the first class/tier-1 platform set for Mozilla2, the next-generation browser technology due in 2008, Mike Schroepfer wrote in the Mozillazine blog. "This means we will make core platform decisions with mobile devices as first-class citizens. We will ship a version of "Mobile Firefox" which can, among other things, run Firefox extensions on mobile devices and allow others to build rich applications via XUL."

While Firefox has had a persistent reputation of being a "fatter" (i.e., more resource-intensive) browser than rivals like Opera, Schroepfer said that mobile hardware is finally catching up with the software. A Mozilla-based browser has already been released for the Nokia N800.
