Re: Firefox Browser is out!!!!
 
i downloaded it and tried it out for a few hours ... bloody slow compared to default browser.
tried to view stuff on this site http://www.davidmovie.com/ and it lagged really badly, took about 10 mins to start the streaming then paused after 20 mins and wouldnt start back up, refreshed page and i couldnt fast forward by clicking progress bar at the bottom.

then used the default browser and it worked like a dream.

unless there are some big improvments i aint gonna use fennec again!

microB is good, fast and native in all N900. both are based on mozilla engine, so what's the advantage of using fennec (assuming it's as fast as microB)?

New update is available, check it out. Seems like Firefox got over with it's speed problem.

You can enable it on about:config

Find the plugin.disable & plugin.default_plugin_disabled parameters which are set to true and set them to false(highlight and hit enter)

Then restart Firefox.

Are there any reasons to install this? It would have to be much better than the default browser, the only feature I can see is the desktop sync?

Personally I'd see reason to install it if it's about as good as the default browser, but with different strenghts and weaknesses :B
