And what about backporting the web browser from Harmattan? Is it completely open source? Seems very nice.

Could you guys take a look at it? It not too sure what the mozilla team did wrong, but they did mess up somewhere along the line... If you compare this one with the newer builds, it's smoking fast... Not sure where to get the source, though.
I did once try to get volunteers to test other fennec builds... Not much help, there. There's this guy over at the mozilla team, mbrubeck, who seemed happy, willing and motivated to collaborate with others to solve fennec's issues, should anyone want to help in that.

it's fairly stable, but for me doesn't start correctly from menu, but runs completely fine from xterm.(just type fennec)
when started ui shows up after ~5 seconds, becomes responsive after 8-10 seconds.
kinetic scrolling works fine, doesn't lag for normal use, but if you scroll too much, page will take ~100-300 ms to redraw.
much more usable than recent builds, but still microB is faster !

ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/tin...ral-maemo5-qt/
latest qt nightly, 9.0-a1 is a lot faster than older versions, page load/scrolling performance is almost on par with microb/opera now
