I love firefox and would like to use it on my android tablet a Viewsonic VB730.

I realize this is not in the supported device list but would like to give it a try anyway.

The issue is that the VB730 does not have the Android Market app on it.

Is there another location I can get Firefox for Android? ( Perhaps Amazon.com ??? )


Thanks

Greg Richter

You can use http://bit.ly/fennecftp to download from outside the market. You will need to check back every 6 weeks to install the latest version. There is no automatic updates outside the market.
