on YouTube ↗28m

" summary

Claims a real phone running Firefox OS will ship in Brazil Q1, delivered in less than a year and a half, aimed at low‑end hardware but with usable UI. Architecture uses linux kernel (Android drivers minus Java), the gecko engine talking directly to hardware, and a Gaia UI made of HTML/CSS/JS. New device APIs (telephony, SMS, contacts, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, settings, web apps) exist, demos of dialer and home screen run in emulator, Nightly, or on Galaxy/Nexus prototypes.
