Mozilla and Partners Prepare to Launch First Firefox OS Smartphones
All the previews I've read say that Firefox OS needs high-end hardware to deliver a responsive UI.<p>"Its unresponsive screen makes typing a laborious process requiring painstaking precision. Every action from swiping to tapping onscreen controls takes a beat until you see results, so using the phone for a prolonged period steals minutes of your time. Lag carries into the camera, which is slow to launch, snap, and reset."[1]<p>For $90, I would rather have a refurbished iPhone 3GS. A 3GS has 16GB of internal storage vs this phones 512MB and runs Apple's latest iOS 6. With native performance you get a silky smooth experience from the homescreen to apps even on budget hardware.<p>[1] <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57591716-94/firefox-os-phone-launches-tuesday-in-spain-at-$3-a-month/" rel="nofollow">http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57591716-94/firefox-os-phon...</a>
