From ZTE au website, JB HiFi selling Firefox OS phones. (http://www.zte.com.au/devices/Firefox_OpenC.htm)
Any one seen them and any experience?
I bought one a few months ago. It is basic but functions (for me) - as a classic phone, sending SMS, Nokia's maps and as a WiFi hotspot. A few times I read webpages but I rarely do (I prefer bigger screens and am not desperate to need web brosing all the time) It is a step forward from the original ZTE Open, with Firefox OS 1.3 instead of 1.0. With data switched off it lasts close to a week. And I love the feeling that Apple and Google (and associated darker forces) do not know everything about me. Which should be a non-negotiable requirement for any equipment but .. well, we live in times where the indecent is considered standard. Recently I saw a jealous husband monitoring his (unfaithful, he suspects) wife via "Find a friend" app on an iPhone. It's scary to see what's possible today. For everyone.. Regards Peter
