First photo of the Firefox OS is published

Announced this week, the OS Firefox is Mozilla's bet in the world of mobile and was derived from Gecko to boot, the system completely done with web standards. Using only standard web, many people wonder what will be the interface and what features it should offer. Probably to appease those curious, an evangelist for the Mozilla released the first photo of the system running on a device.

The photo clearly shows a Samsung Galaxy S II with Rob Hawkes, Mozilla evangelist, which is guarantees to unlock screen Firefox OS. The image, published on Twitpic, shows that the system is slightly different from 2 Boot Gecko when he first appeared in the Mobile World Congress this year. She has also revealed that the system has the option to release or quick access to the camera - as long as the hardware of the phone has this option.

By the way, speaking of models that should run the system, it is unlikely that we will see a Galaxy S II with the addition of Firefox OS images to test Mozilla. The only manufacturers who support the project so far are Alcatel and ZTE and Mozilla has ensured that the focus will be even low-end smartphones.

But we can dream of a day that you can download and install the system in our Android devices currently.
