Mozilla releases Fennec Beta for Nokia 810s
News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - March 19, 2009



Mozilla today released a limited beta of its long-awaited Fennec mobile browser (Firefox Mobile). At the moment, only users with Nokia N810s will be able to try the beta as the scope of this release is extremely limited.

Those who want to try the beta without a Nokia N810 can do so on a PC. Fennec was built on Javascript so it will run on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

A Mozilla contributor said about the beta:

"On the feature front, we've enabled plugins so you can now watch videos on your favorite sites, and we've got in our first pass at improved bookmark management and support for bookmark folders. A lot of time was spent on infrastructure that we could use to build the rest of our app with. You're now able to scroll things like preferences and the new bookmarks list. One of our main focuses for the next milestone will be on polishing the user interface areas like the extension manager will get a face lift and we'll start working more on some of the usability issues people have reported. "
