Keep up the great work!

Well, flash lite 3.1 has been leaked. Is firefox mobile going to support activex plugins? Because if so, flash will work.

GREAT news. I can’t stand browsing the web on my Windows Mobile Smartphone because of how terrible mobile browsers are. This could be the greatest news since they began slicing bread!

@Idiotonuni: Hopefully we’ll have nightlies fairly soon, we’re working on merging an hg “branch” back into the main line trunk.

@Niraj and Mike: The current goal is to have Alpha 1 for windows mobile coincide with Alpha 2 for linux. So you should have something of alpha quality later this fall to play with.

Thanks for all you do, and **can’t wait** to use on Windows Mobile! As asked previously, any rough idea as to when it will be available (even in beta)?

One thing that PIE has over Opera Mobile (at least 9.5 Beta, my current browser of choice) is that PIE loads and shows my homepage in about 5 seconds, while launching Opera can take over half a minute. I don’t think my TyTN is too slow (400 MHz?), but the difference in launch time when I just want to do a quick web search is almost enough to make me change my default browser. If I could launch Fennec *quickly* it would be a big win.

Is there a tracking bug for the conversions to the Wide APIs?
