Mozilla
releases the Friefox OS Simulator. The Firefox OS Simulator launched three
weeks ago, is now stable enough for a formal 1.0 launch. The Firefox OS Simulator
is an extension for Firefox that allows developers and users to test their apps
for Mozilla’s new mobile operating system without having to get a compatible
phone. Developers can test their HTML5 apps before the OS makes its debut next
year. Mozilla hasn’t wired up Firefox Sync support yet, and it’s loading
desktop version of web pages.
Mozilla also announced that it is bringing
per-window private browsing. But this feature is only available in the
experimental Nightly versions of Firefox. The per-window private browsing is a
complete, from-scratch redesign of Firefox's private browsing mode, which now
allows users to open a new private window without losing any existing Firefox
windows. Users can even right click on any link and choose to open the page in
a private browser window using the feature.
