I think I'll forego watching the Nascar Cup race today. Instead, I'm gonna sit at my desk and watch the "other race" on my Droid. You know. The one to see who gets here first - FF or 2.1... :icon_ banana: mike

Yeah, I just checked on Mozilla's site, https://wiki.mozilla.org/Android

Still a no go, pity.

Hahahaha. Another epic fail for 2010.

Took the words out of my mouth. I think (or hope, anyway) that Moto/Google actually HAS been listening to the forums like this one, and is fixing up the 2.1 upgrade, so that us Droid users will be very happy with the functionality. Possibly they really want to keep us as customers? It's a forgotten concept nowadays, but maybe it's catching on again, eh?

Firefox is slated for the END of the year. Moto and Google have nothing to do with it. Different companies.

Actually, we knew that - just making fun at the "projected" release date of 2.1! Thought the smiley banana relayed that.. mike

Different companies? Yes, that's true. But whatever company is making the software, it's gotta run on AndroidOS, which is a Google thing. I just meant that, possibly, Mozilla is waiting for the Android devs to throw them a bone that would (or may) help FF run better on 2.1 (whenever it comes out). People are talking about the big negative for Android devices right now... Many devices with different OS versions; so it would be nice to know that Google, along with the other software and hardware makers, is trying to get some cooperation/synergy going for the good of all Android devices.

I too use Firefox and would love it for the DROID. I have read that ADOBE has created FLASH for the DROID, will the FIREFOX BROWSER have FLAsh plug ins? For work I have to view a lot of web pages with Flash and it sucks to still have to lug a round my laptop. (maybe I should get an iPad)

Any idea when these will be avail for download?

Firefox (Fennecc) will not be available for quite some time on the Droid, possibly the end of the year from what I have heard. Flash is supposed to be available by the end of the first quarter of this year (soon). The iPad does not support flash and will never support flash according to Steve Jobs, so it wouldn't make any sense to buy one if you have the intentions of viewing web sites with flash on them.
