First Mobile Firefox Beta Released for Nokia N810

The Mozilla Foundation has released its first beta version of Mobile Firefox for the Nokia N810. Earlier versions of this web browser have been made available, but these were still considered alphas.

This application offers:

• Bookmarks, including tags
• Smart URL bar ("awesome bar")
• Tabbed browsing with thumbnail images
• Auto-hiding controls and URL bar
• Zoom in and out
• Password manager
• Pop-up blocker

The latest version adds TraceMonkey (Mozilla's new JavaScript engine), support for plug-ins, and enhanced performance.

More about Mobile Firefox/Fennec
The Mozilla development team is working hard to create a browser that will work well on a smartphone's relatively small screen. Users of Fennec will also be able to access their bookmarks and browsing history from the desktop version of Firefox.

In addition to Windows Mobile, there are also versions being developed for Nokia's Maemo OS for the Internet Tablet line and Symbian S60. There will not be versions for the iPhone, BlackBerry, or Google's Android.
