Firefox Mobile

The team working on the mobile version of Firefox has been primarily focused on developing the browser for Linux and Windows Mobile devices so far. But around 50% of all the Smartphones in the world actually run the Symbian mobile operating system. So it should come as no surprise that Mozilla is also working on a version for Symbian phones.

The plan is to have a working browser by the end of April, 2009 although there’s no official release date for a beta version just yet. Of course, since the browser an open source project, I wouldn’t be surprised if Symbian users were able to download and test early builds as soon as February when the roadmap predicts “basic/limited browsing” fucntionality

The first android is born T-Mobile has just announced the world’s first Android-powered phone. Just less than a year ago, on November 5, that the Open Handset Alliance, a group of more than 30 technology and mobile companies, announced plans to create a complete mobile platform that would facilitate the development of advanced mobile applications and give users the best the web has to offer on a mobile device.

Software developers are key to driving innovation on the web, and also for mobile. That’s why, over the past year, we’ve released several early versions of the Software Developer Kit (SDK) and worked with developers from around the world to make it better and more complete. This has culminated in today’s release of the Android 1.0 SDK R1. Through the SDK, developers have unprecedented access to the hardware and software capabilities of the device, enabling them to innovate freely. More than 1,700 applications were developed as part of the Android Developer Challenge. Google engineers have also been busy developing Android applications. Many of our products (Search, Gmail, and Maps, among others) are available on a wide range of phones such as the iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile devices, and many more. Today, they’re also available on Android, and you can check out the Google Mobile blog for more details.
