Hi,

Many of you probably don't know me, but I'm an engineering director at Mozilla and have been working with most of the engineering teams developing the java ("native") based Firefox Mobile.

As most of you probably know, Firefox Mobile shipped as a beta to phones this week. While the first beta was English only, beta 2, scheduled to be released today, will include a first set of locales, with more to come in beta 3. Beyond that, we are looking at ways to best deliver as many additional locales in the marketplace as possible within the technical limitations around what the marketplace can do and our start up time with multi-locale packaging.

That all being said, I wanted to express my gratitude for all the effort you have put in to make the relaunched Firefox Mobile a success. You stuck with us through the false starts in January/February and translated on a tight timeline for beta that didn't match the traditional train schedule.

Thank you very much,

-JP

Hi JP,
can you give us any news about Firefox beta and tablets? I updated
Firefox Beta on both my Android devices: on my phone (Galaxy S II) I
have a localized native Firefox, on my tablet (Asus Eee) it still has
XUL interface and it's in English.
