Mozilla say no to Firefox on Apple iPhone
We know the Apple iPhone is the biggest product out on the market and I do personally have the iPhone and this is why this latest news is a bit of a kick in the teeth.

I work all day on my computer and indeed use Mozilla Firefox and must say am pretty disappointed that Mozilla have said no to Firefox going on the Apple iPhone.

Mozilla invited a few technology writers to their office on Wednesday for a roundtable discussion and one of the discussions was about the Apple iPhone, John Lilly Mozilla’s CEO and VP of engineering Mike Schroepfer has said that Apple’s software requirements for the handset are too restrictive, this is when they said they will not be making Firefox for the iPhone.

Lilly said, “Apple has not written a license which allows Firefox to run on the iPhone.” Instead, they will pursue more open platforms like Android.
Do you think they have made a mistake and should have Firefox for Apple iPhone?
