Firefox 5 and All About Android

I could not believe my eyes when I read our first story. An all new Firefox coming in June? Wow. I just installed version 4 (and love it, by the way). Not long ago I published an article saying Mozilla was going to be more aggressive with their updates.  I guess they were serious.

Our number three story is about all things Android. Many of us have Android phones, including me, but there is much more to Android than that. So, if you have an Android product now or may get one in the future, be sure to read this story. By the way, researchers say the Android phones will blow past iPhones and be the #1 Smartphone in the very near future…I believe them.
