As if the market was not full enough with new Operating systems, FireFox has
decided to release FireFox OS simulator.

They are competing against the big names like Apple and Android as well as
host of bit players like Windows, Rim and Ubuntu, for a place in the phone
and tablet market. 

But they are trying a different strategy which may be very successful. You
just have to run up your FF browser, it installs a plug and you now you have
a full featured FireFox OS simulator. Impressive to my way of thinking...no
muss, fuss or costs, just sit down and start developing. Another plus is
that it is fully open standard compatible so you can just hack together or
upgrade your existing websites or apps.
