'Firefox Home' Hits the App Store

Nice. I'll have to try it out, though it oughta be tough to beat MobileMe and Mobile Safari.

This should be interesting, I'll give it a try to see if I like it :)

But what about Javascript? I don't have an iPhone but I thought that's why the opera browser did some sort of remote load and then downloaded to the phone cause app store apps can't run "other code" (ie: javascript).

Anyone know if javascript works on this browser?

Anyone know if javascript works on this browser?

It's not a web browser. It syncs your bookmarks and tabs from the desktop version of Firefox and allows you to open them in Safari.

I download Firefox Home, thinking I'd get the browser, only to find I had to buy Sync for 2 bucks and then further find out I have to solve the puzzle of finding the Holy Grail (impossle for me to figure out with Weave, whatever that is) and eventually abandoning the whole project. Epic FAIL, IMO. Too bad, really. C'mon Mozilla, do I need to jump through so many hoops?!

Pretty nice app. Downloaded Sync for free, and now looking at my desktop tabs on my Iphone. Sweet!

Oh yay! Mozilla has released their not-Firefox-mobile product for the iPhone. I'm so thrilled I can finally sync my bookmarks. I mean, who needs a decent Firefox browser on the iPhone really? C'mon, all you really need is a proper sync utility.

Not.

At least there's Atomic Web Browser.

This is not a normal browser. Just an App to Sync your Firefox bookmarks on the
desktop and open them on the iPhone, this does not have an Address
URL Bar.

I find it useless in time. I like the Tabs idea, you can transport
the opened Tab on the Desktop to the iPhone, that's it.

I have a better solution, which works also if you use IE or Chrome.
First you have to install on your Mac or PC your favorite browser (FF or IE or Chrome) AND Safari.
Second, you need to download Xmarks (download.xmarks.com) to sync your bookmarks between your favorite browser and Safari.
Third, you setup iTunes to sync Safari bookmarks with your iPhone or iPad
Fourth, the trick is done. Each time you make a change in your bookmarks (in your favorite browser) it will be updated automatically in Safari (without having to open Safari). So, the changes will go into your iPhone / iPad the next time you sync it to iTunes.

Because my primary browser is Safari 5, I use MobileMe to Sync Bookmarks to iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad, then using Xmarks to Sync to Firefox and Chrome as my second browser. All browsers with the same bookmarks. Great approach.
