If you're a Firefox user on your PC or Mac, and you have an Android phone, you'll no doubt have felt left out as its so far been unavailable on Android devices. But now, Mozilla have released beta version of their Firefox 4 browser for both Android and Maemo and it looks decent. Personally, features that I use most frequently are included, such as Pinch and zoom (not available for the Nokia unfortunately), tabs, location awareness and password manager.

  • Pinch-to-zoom (Android), double-tap, or use the volume rocker (Nokia N900) to zoom in and out
  • Tabbed browsing in thumbnail view lets you easily see and open the site you want
  • Location-Aware Browsing gives you content and info relevant to your location
  • Find in Page in the Site Menu lets you quickly find text on the webpage
  • Share Page in the Site Menu lets you send content to email, Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader
  • Forget Password in the Site Menu tells a website you no longer trust to forget your private data
  • Add Search Engine in the Site Menu lets you quickly add a new search engine to your Awesome Screen
  • Context Menu lets you Open in New Tab and Share by long tapping and holding a link
  • Smart Tapping lets you tap on links, widgets and other Web content with accuracy
  • Password Manager lets you choose to remember site password to avoid typing
  • Firefox 4 beta also includes Firefox Sync, which encrypts and stores individual Firefox data on servers for later retrieval. To download the latest Firefox 4 beta release for your mobile device, just click � firefox.com/m/beta
