Mozillas Mobile Browser Alpha Hits Android and Nokia N900 [PICS]

Mozilla has just released the Fennec 2.0 Alpha for Nokia N900 and Android 2.0+ devices.Fennec is the code name for Firefox mobile and includes the ability to install browser add-ons and sync with the desktop version of Firefox. The new version comes with built-in support for Firefox Sync (what was known as Weave), so that tabs, passwords and bookmarks that you use on your desktop can be easily synced and transferred to your mobile device.The alpha also includes support for pinch-to-zoom on Android, location-aware browsing, the ability to save a site as a PDF, and built-in site sharing via Facebook, Twitter or Google Reader.Like the pre-alpha, Fennec for Android, Fennec has been optimized for the Google Nexus One. However, other ARM 7 devices like the HTC EVO 4G, the Samsung Galaxy S and the Motorola Droid series should also support the alpha.We installed the Fennec alpha on our Samsung Galaxy S Captivate and it was clear that the app is still very much in alpha mode and is possibly not even evolved enough to be labeled alpha, to be honest.

…The looks we’ve gotten so far at BlackBerry OS 6 have been impressive enough, but it looks like the real crown jewel might be that WebKit browser. Here’s how it stacked up recently against iOS4 and Android 2.1.
Above, a video by Salomondrin that demonstrates the new browser in action on a BlackBerry 9800. After putting it through its Acid 3 test paces, he came up with an impressive score of 208:
Compare that to iOS4 on an iPhone 4, which scored a 185:

And Android 2.1 running on an HTC Incredible, which weighed in at 151:

Of course, it’s unfair to use Android 2.1 when Froyo is distinctly faster. But at the very least it’s a welcome sign for BlackBerry devotees that their business hardware of choice will be matched by a browser that’s more than capable of keeping up with their social needs….

HTC Browser Safety Matters

…thumb1. We have to strain that we have not experienced this technique, but you can do so at your own danger, although it should make excessively a lot of tribulations.
For what it is the value we established that the office HTC Desire as well enclosed the similar folder, but it was amassed on the SD card somewhat than in inside memory, so it would appear that the careless thumbnailing is not restricted to the Incredible.
