Mozilla Aims Again at Mobile Browsing

"Mobile browsing itself is an increasingly growing market. Strategy Analytics has reported that there are currently 172 million smart phones in use today. That number will grow to 462 million by 2012.

""Our priority right now is performance and responsiveness," Sullivan said. "There are projects underway like TraceMonkey, speculative parsing, graphics, networking and other improvements that will make the browser much faster and make it a good platform for application developers.""
