ha...yah man...why would you!? if its not broken...don't fix it. sheesh, if you read the article it doesn't even run on android 1.5 and many hero users don't have rooted phones running 2.1! not to mention it says that it barely runs on the nexus one processor.

I am very cautious of early betas, and will only run alphas of my own code... Regardless of platform.

Why in the world would anyone run a pre-alpha of anything other than their own code for initial debugging?

This good news as I love FireFox on my pc. But I will wait for a better release. But still can't wait for it on my Hero.

But still an great app, I hope official or a b
