The open source geek favorite browser Firefox is getting ready to hit mobile phones. In an interview to APC mag The head of mozilla foundation Mitchell Baker told that the Mozilla foundation’s mission is to improve internet experience and that is increasingly on devices other than PCs. But she said its a long term move, that means its not going to be ready in next few weeks or months.

We are also looking at how to reflect the richness of the entire web on a small device with the current constraints and that one we don’t know. There is no easy answer for that because the web is growing and the functionalities of the web are growing. We’re looking closely at that one.

We have an experiment underway which is clearly a PC-centric experiment related to mobiles (so this is not a pure mobile strategy), but we are experimenting with the relationship between Firefox users and their mobile devices. We know people like Firefox because of the add-ons and the customisation and the ability to get particular information that you want through Firefox and extensions.
