FWIW, the Mozilla Corporation is *not* "working on a Firefox to go for 
your cellphone".  We are, however, working on a Java midlet and server 
that let you pass data from Firefox to your phone.  It's called Project 
Joey, and you can get more info on the Mozilla Labs featured projects 
list <http://labs.mozilla.com/featured-projects/>.

And we're also rearchitecting Gecko, the rendering engine inside 
Firefox, to improve embeddability in mobile phones, among other goals.  
Read more about that on the Mozilla 2 wiki page 
<http://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozilla_2>.
