Fennec, Mozilla's little fox
A brief article about the Fennec mobile web browser being developed by Mozilla

I am very excited about the Android linux mobile phone platform and the opportunity it would provide to handset owners and content distributors across the European 3G wireless plumbing.
I have previously comment on the viability of Skype as a call provider for your Android phone but what about surfing the internet across your 3G Android handset.
For many years there has been a mobile web browser produced by Opera to rival the default application on your handset. To be honest I am a big Firefox fan and not really tired desktop or mobile versions of Opera. Despite no previous experience in the mobile browser market. I found the arstechnica article about Mozilla's Fennec project.
Fennec a small fox is a mobile version of the Firefox browser running on mobile devices like Android and the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet.
The arstechnica article provides an in-depth analysis of the Fennec browser but as a tech savvy consumer I am more interested in seeing some of my favourite applications that I use regularly being readied for the battle against Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 devices and iPhone version of OS X when the Android phones are released using the T-Mobile network in the United States.
