Hi Mace

Development work has slowed on Firefox for Android while we have been working on this new version, not just the front end that you see, but the engineering that makes it much faster behind the scenes. With us now ready to publish what we have been working on, Firefox for Android is now much more in line with the desktop copy of Firefox.
