Firefox Mobile unlikely browser on Windows Phone 7 after dev comment?

Making a joke with your competitor is always a risky thing, and taking a joke too far can put yourself or your company in between a rock and a hard place. Just ask Mozilla Platform Engineer Rob Sayre.

I'm just so sick of Windows and anything they make.

Cueil5823d ago

so you haven't seen Windows Phone 7?

gta28005823d ago

I have. And I honestly don't know what Microsoft is thinking. That thing has the sh1ttiest UI I've ever seen. It's so plain, it looks generic.

Sort the dam title out. It makes no sense at all.

Same hear that's why i have gone mac

ms guys just talks crap about other companies they need to look at there self first before taking a dump at others big mouth will get them no where probably in there own grave

thereapersson5823d ago

Internet Explorer is such crap; I don't know why Microsoft keeps acting like this is 1998 and IE was still gaining traction in the market.

Firefox might take up a lot of RAM, but at least it has more versatility and less security holes than Microsoft's ballyhooed effort...

Cueil5823d ago

a huge, massive, exteam step into the right direction... they have a preview... 14 megs... it passes all CSS3 test (much better than the almost half that 8 fails) It also is almost as fast as the new Chrome... Microsoft seems to be on a streak right now...

It is about the head of fire fox trying to get fire fox on the WP7Series brand of smart phones. And response to it being for casuals it will also have cloud office on it and enterprise. Damn the phone even streams netflix. And the UI is customizable you put on the front what you want. Do more research before you slam something.

CHROME right here buddy WOOHOO!
chrome is badass and def a better performance then either firefox and IE..

however i do love Firefox though no doubt..
but as far as IE goes? Fvck that,i still hate it and have ben since a decade ago.

dragonelite5823d ago

Dont know i have a feeling windows 7 mobile will be huge and with Live integration it will be a more attractive mobile platform for them.

Windows 7M will be for the casuals and WM 6.5 will be the business platform. I know im getting a WM 7 i like the new custom ui.

As an accessibility option for those that need it im all for it. As the standard control for ps6 helllll noo, touch controller would be the absolute worst.

Eonjay24d ago

Reading the patent itself this does seem to be intended with accessibility in mind as it attempts to solve comfort issues that some users have with overall size and placement. Im completely fine with the current layout but its nice to know this option is there. It is intended to allow customers the ability to resize the controller to there liking even those the company may not manufacture that size. So, its cool to see they are thinking like this even though this product may not be for me. I would still love to see it release and see the potential use cases.

Digital will always be worse than physical buttons for 99% of gaming lol.

DivineHand12524d ago

This is interesting not only for accessibility reasons, but as a way to give players more control over their in game characters for core gamers.

I remember seeing the Tactus pop up buttons at CES 13 years ago and I was excited for the technology but I am not aware of any devices that used it.

The way gaming controllers are presented today is great, but I will always advocate for innovation in giving players more control and increased immersion.

MetalNCarnet24d ago

Terrible idea. For most games, you need to feel the physical buttons because you're not looking at the controller. I hope they aren't serious.

fr0sty24d ago

Unless they've worked out a way for tactile feedback so you can feel them. Perhaps little air bladders that could inflate when a button is placed in that position, placed under a flexible screen? Maybe it wouldn't be the best controller for all of us, but I know people who have medical conditions that make holding traditional controllers very uncomfortable with their default button layouts, this could help them.

Duke1924d ago (Edited 24d ago )

More accessibility options is never a bad thing, but man I hate that all electronics seem to be pushing touchscreen controls on everything.

They are just garbage

badz14924d ago

We are at the point in time when touch screen controls are cheaper to make than physical buttons. Just look at modern cars. More and more system controls are moved to the central screen now that all new cars come with screens. It's downright ironic too, considering just not that many years ago, people were warn to not use their phone while driving. Now all controls are moved to the central screen that you can't help but looking at screens while driving.

fr0sty24d ago

EXCEPT trying to connect your phone, lol. They make you stop to do that. But the big screen that is every bit as distracting as a phone, it's cool.
