Meanwhile, hidden amongst the iPhone hype, Mozilla previewed its forthcoming Firefox OS smartphone platform during the week.

Unlike Google and Apple, Mozilla is taking the unusual tactic of making its preview versions of its software freely available as it develops.

So how far has development progressed? AndroidCentral posted this video of a developer preview of Mozilla’s Firefox OS, previously known as Boot to Gecko.

Being an Android blog, the video demonstrates the platform running on a two-year-old Samsung Nexus S smartphone, so it obviously isn’t as fast as it would be on a newer handset. Nonetheless, it gives a good indication of the “look and feel” Mozilla is aiming for in Firefox OS:
