Minimo Browser’s Future Uncertain

By James Quintana Pearce - Mon 02 Apr 2007 09:06 PM PST

Minimo 0.2, the latest version of the Mozilla-based mobile browser, has been released. It is compatible with Windows Mobile 5.0 and is reportedly smaller and faster than previous versions. However the future of the project is looking uncertain, reports Computerworld. “In late December, Doug Turner, the leader of the project, wrote that he wouldn’t be dedicating much time to it in the future. “There are lots of browsers in the space, the market is tightly controlled by cellular operators, and the end users aren’t using the browser,” he wrote on his blog. “This will change, but not for a few years.” Apparently the project will now focus on things aimed at Firefox users with mobile phones that can be implemented without having to build a full browser for the handset, and completed in months rather than years.
