Nazi 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2012 Firefox OS for mobile will be based entirely on HTML5 standards, which is to say that, in a way, every app and tool will be a kind of rich Web page. But that oversimplifies the case, as HTML5's toolset has already proven to be capable of creating all kinds of rich and powerful Web apps. And as it is a public, well-established set of standards, the OS would be more open and accessible than Android, which was created with the idea of being open and accessible. Your camera, contacts, text messages, and so on would in fact all run within HTML5 frameworks, which sounds strange until you consider how full-featured and powerful existing Web apps are, for example Google Docs and Dropbox. Source Firefox is planning to launch "Firefox OS" in mobile by 2013. Firefox OS will launch smart-phones built on open web standards where everything will be HTML5 application starting from phone's dialing compatibility to email app everything. Firefox OS will have to compete with Android as its already ruling the mobile phones. It should provide much more services than android to succeed in the long techy run. Is there any need of fully open source, HTML5 mobile OS when we already have an Android? All the best Firefox is what I can say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
