Mozilla browser for Mobiles


Pleasant news for all the Firefox fans out there: Firefox has a little brother, named Minimo. Minimo is Mozilla’s browser for mobile phones. Minimo is already being used by some manufacturers and in fact a third version has already been developed. What hinders the spread of Minimo at a pace like big brother Firefox though, is that not the end user, but the phone manufacturer decides which browser is implemented.

Minimo 0.1 and 0.2 resolve the issue of displaying web pages on small devices, and is currently only supported for the ARM architecture, an Intel version will follow soon. If a web page will load correctly in Firefox, it will load the same in Minimo 0.3. New features like web site zooming will be added by around June 2005, while others such as navigating past links using arrow keys, rather than tabbing one by one and auto web address completion will be available in Janua
