It is not that I didn't like something, it is just different. I dont think we really need to have another browser in moblin when we have such great ones as Firefox. Why is there a need to reinvent a wheel? :-) Firefox runs really well on Moblin, granted some integration is missing but it is easy fixable. It also has a ton of features and plugins and it is loved by the community. I understand, you don't want to be completely dependent on Mozilla's software and release cycles but I still think it just better to stick something people are used to. A customized(lighten up) version of Firefox for example. It should let you spend the effort on other parts of Moblin. > Hopefully we can fix that and convince you to try it again in the > future :) > Well, no search on a page was really disappointing :-) Oh and, for some reason, whenever I change default search provider to google, it switches back to Yahoo after I restart.
