Mobile Firefox (aka Fennec) is legally impossible for the iPod touch/iPhone

[sprint_user]

For the iPhone, Apple’s licence can not install software to have an interpreted language. But Firefox includes JavaScript, which makes it legally impossible to carry on the iPhone….For Android, Webkit is integrated into the OS, and only Java applications can run. And Firefox is not written in Java. So that’s why [Fennec will not run on Android]. However, in both cases, things may change in future, but it does not depend on Mozilla.

Opera is actually a very good web browser at least on computers.

The Firefox Concept looked interesting, but for now, Safari works.

The AppStore doesn't allow Safari competitors anyway...

[rileyman]

unless apple allows it

[GrooveMachine]

...In which case they wouldn't, since absolutely none are allowed. Under any circumstances. Why would Apple allow a competing browser like Firefox to work on the iPhone? So they could lose Safari users?
