1 browser for light browsing
1 browser for intense browsing.

brilliant idea, no?

I'm not so sure about whether it's brilliant or not, at least if the Fennec is still as cumbersome as some of the past versions I've tried. Of course it's a new device, so I'll judge it when I get my hands on it.

Yeah but I don't really get that...
Why would mozilla pay for Nokia's licensing?
In the end nokia has to fork-out for a binary that'll run on harmattan
Adobe's not going to give Nokia a freebie just because Mozilla asks them nicely.

You kidding? fennec is teh awesome!
It could do with a few microb-isms, but overall it's just as good (if not better) IMO.

But I hope the N9's integrated webkit browser is even cooler than the N900's microb.
By the sounds of it all it may be, fingers crossed.

Jolo works for Nokia, not Mozilla. So when he says that they are talking with Adobe to get Flash certified on N9, he means Nokia. So that probably means that we'll get Flash on N9 if Adobe isn't too greedy...

Yeah I've since realised that in the other thread:

But thanks! It's still far from a forgone conclusion.
If he's having to try & press things w/management at this late stage, it doesn't bode well IMO

Well, there is always Nokia Store (Ovi Store) to download applications from. I'm sure people who don't see Fennec as essential part of N9 experience can agree that at least it could be available from Ovi Store for downloads.

BTW, the same comment from Urho Konttori on his blog confirms DLNA story.

@abbra

You mean users could pay for fennec + flash 10x app, in order to have a signed adobe binary, that'll work on harmattan in DRM-mode?

@jalyst, no I didn't mean that at all. What I meant is that there is Ovi Store and Ovi Store client on the device (N950 has it, no connection to real Ovi Store yet but developers' guidelines talk about Ovi Store-based distribution of software for N9). If Fennec would be done, it would be available through the store -- if it wouldn't be part of the sales package as Urho's comment seems to imply.

Whether Adobe Flash will be part of that is up in the air, at least for me. Nokia is known to work on Fennec on Maemo6: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666218

Ooh, they've even got DSP-side vorbis/FLAC codecs for some OMAP2s!
