Lurker Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hello, from wiki : Firefox OS (project name: Boot to Gecko also known as B2G) is a Linux-based open source operating system for smartphones and tablet computers being developed by Mozilla. It is designed to allow HTML5 applications to integrate directly with the device's hardware using Javascript. It has been demonstrated on Android-compatible smartphones,and the Raspberry Pi.The first smartphones running Firefox OS should be released in the first half of 2013. It will first be released in South America, and will later come to Asian and European markets.ZTE confirmed at CES 2013 that they will ship a smartphone with the OS. Detail : Company / developer Mozilla Corporation Programmed in HTML, CSS, Javascript,[1] C++ Supported platforms ARM Kernel type Monolithic (Linux kernel) Default user interface Graphical Official website http://www.mozilla.org/firefoxos/ Mozilla has finally launched an operating system for smartphones, one whose ascendancy will probably be a slow burn, but could also mark big changes in the way people interact with mobile devices — by ditching a closed “ecosystem.” Firefox OS for mobile phones is not a walled garden like Apple‘s iOs, Windows Phone or (to an extent) Android. It is based on the open web, which means interacting with many of its HTML5-based apps will be like visiting websites through a browser, opening temporarily as apps, and closing. The phone, in essence, is a browser. Mozilla says Firefox phones will be the world’s first “open web devices.” source : wiki and forbes sites 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahmansunbeam Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Entirely in HTML5? cleaver! Ubuntu is also out there to give a fight. So far the need for better processor and display is rising.... means more money to spend. I hope these specialists should go for cheaper phones than smarter ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
