Ops sorry guys. I missed that part. I thought a new build was available in a final form... My bad.

Hm, interesting. I just confirmed it myself. I'll have the guys look into what is happening. Expect a post with more information, once I get it.

Awesome - btw, I knew your ID sounded familiar

I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like to say "thanks" for dropping in and offering support for what I think is a great product.

Fennec sucks in Scandinavian version of N900.

Zooming IN and OUT is difficult. With keyboard "shortcuts", one has to press three keys at the same time.
I've made a proposition of better "standard" which would make sure it works in all those minimal qwerty-keyboards which do not have anything else extra but CTRL-key (and A-Z).

Also currently still there is no way to screw and unscrew zooming level as in MicroB.

(Is there any fixes for these zooming issues in the latest builds?)

Hey, you're welcome! We try to make sure Firefox is the best it possibly can be and for especially for anyone that wants to help test and provide feedback.

As a follow-up, we haven't been able to reproduce it unfortunately. I'm going to keep on testing and if anyone else is able to reproduce, feel free to ping me on irc.mozilla.org as aakashd

Once copy/paste starts showing up, I can try to make a few minutes time to test that.

I been using firefox mobile as my main browser in my n810 since the first official release, now i am using fennec 1.1a2 and all i can said is that is 100% better than the first one. The only one thing that is stopping me from using fennec over microb is flash, i try activating flash in fennec but make the system very unstable, i have an idea but i dont now how to tested, my idea is just like when fennec open pdf reader to read any pdf file when you press the file in the browser, or when fennec opens the application manager when an installation file is selected, can fennec open the flash video in other application like mytube for you tube videos, i wonder if this can be done on the about:config or maybe an add-on.

Thank you to everyone involved in this great application.

Some people who don't use Firefox on N900 regularly may have missed this, but there's an add-on called Near Me available which uses the cell signal to determine location and then you can find useful things near you (restaurants, petrol stations etc). Very well implemented and easy to use and a decent alternative to the lack of a real Google maps app on Maemo.

While I love the speed and power of MicroB, the clever UI design of Firefox (the right and left swipe is genius in my view) plus the added functionality through extensions/add-ons (Twitter Bar, Near me, Ad Block etc) mean I use it as my primary browser on the N900. Whenever I go back to MicroB I find the handling of multiple tabs/windows a little clunky by comparison.

I'd like to see some magic go into the UI as well. To me the general look of Mobile Firefox is as elegant and enjoyable as the on-screen keyboard we are currently enjoying. :P

Sorry to break-up the techie talk. :P

thanks for the feedback, we're continuing to improve performance, responsiveness, and features.
