Mozilla is looking to take the mobile world with storm with the release of Firefox Mobile "Fennec" for Maemo [1]. However, another interesting news from Phandroid [2] confirms that a Firefox Mobile version for Android [3] is under works and will be made available for downloads soon.

This news comes shortly after the release of Firefox Mobile "Fennec" RC3 for Maemo [4], which suggests that a final release of the Maemo version is just around the corner. Firefox Mobile for Android will be made available as a beta release somewhere in February 2010. Unlike other browsers, Firefox Mobile has support for extensions. However, it still has to challenge the mighty Opera Mini and the impressive Skyfire before it goes on to become one of the best browsers for smartphones.

Are you looking forward to using Firefox Mobile on your Android device?
