New Fennec Releases Available!

· Uncategorized

Today the Mozilla mobile team announced the release of two milestones for the Fennec project – Fennec 1.0 Beta 2 for Maemo and Fennec 1.0 Alpha 2 for Windows Mobile. Additionally, you can also download desktop builds for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Stuart Parmenter, Mozilla’s mobile team technical lead, highlights some of the exciting new features in his blog post, excerpted below:

For these releases we have worked on improving the user experience, replacing our old theme with a much nicer looking one and fixing numerous usability issues. We’ve continued to increase performance and responsiveness. We’ve revamped how you install Add-ons, improved our download manager and the whole look of the application. We’ve started work on making forms on web pages easier to use, providing a nicer combo box UI than before.

For more details visit Stuart’s post. Congratulations on these milestones!
