fennec_logo_mozilla_for_mobile It seems to be a browser kind of weekend here at MobilitySite. First Marilyn’s excellent review of Skyfire, now word that the next alpha release of Mozilla’s long awaited Mobile browser, Fennec, is available for all WinMo 6+ devices.

Here is how the release notes describe this alpha version…

The initial focus of Fennec development was on building a new user experience that reflects Firefox’s design principles, adding touch screen support and other interactions appropriate for mobile phones and other handheld devices. Fennec preserves leading features like the Smart URL Bar ("awesome bar") and support for add-ons.

This Windows Mobile alpha release continues to focus on stability, performance, and integration with the Windows Mobile OS. This version also includes numerous fixes and and our new shiney theme.

Get the free download from Mozilla and take it for a spin.
