Firefox-Google deal is up for renewal, is Bing poised to take over?

[Guest]

Actually, both Mozilla and Google have both stated in the last couple of days that they are negotiating renewal. The rest of your post is irrelvant and spin.

Really, how difficult is it for an end user to change the home page anyway?

The paragraph about mobile markets is misleading. The Android Browser is not Google Chrome. Although, Honeycomb's browser looks more similar to Chrome than any other Android Browser. Honeycomb was designed for tablet. So, I don't expect ICS's Browser to be much of an improvement on Gingerbread's.

I have used fennec and now Firefox for Android and it's one of the few early-stage Android browsers that I've kept installed. I think the UI in the Android port is amazingly intuitive and that it will easily compete as a browser alternative if development continues.

All this said, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Google's Chrome team has a polished browser available on Android Market.

I've used Firefox for about the last four years and will never use another browser while it's around but if it were to go away I'd switch to Safari or IE before I would ever use a Google product.

I have & use both Firefox & its relative SeaMonkey & Google Chrome. IMHO Firefox isn't going to die.
No browser is perfect & I've also read some of this http://www.emoneydaily.com/google-inc-nasdaqgoog-renews-firefox-search-deal/69821321/

Have a great day :grinthumb

Google Chrome is a buggy product still. Try to watch Netflix with it. It crashes after 45 minutes watching with my win2K3. Can't play many video streams from many websites, corrupts ISO image downloads without any error messages, don't work well with webpages designed with older technologies. On the other hand, FF works well in all websites.

In conclusion, Chrome is an immature product.

As I previously said, no browser is 100% perfect. I'm using Google Chrome as I type. I found this https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hhnjdplhmcnkiecampfdgfjilccfpfoe
a while back & thought I'd try it. Have a lovely day.
