Firefox for Windows Mobile could hit Alpha next week

Mozilla could release the first beta alpha version of Firefox for Windows Mobile devices in the first week of February. At launch, the browser (which is codenamed Fennec) will only be designed for the HTC Touch Pro. But I wouldn't be surprised to see Mozilla or third party developers port it to run on other Windows Mobile devices soon after.

It's been a few months since the first screenshots of Fennec running on a Windows Mobile device (shown above) showed up, which either indicates that the team has been working on the Windows Mobile version for a while, or the pictures were phony. I'm hoping for the former.

If you can't wait another week or two to try Fennec on Windows Mobile, you can always download the latest alpha version of the browser for Windows, Mac, or Linux.
