'''Firefox for === iPhone'''<br> ===We do not have plans to build an iPhone browser due to constraints with the OS environment and distribution. Unlike other third-party browsers for iPhone, Firefox depends on its own rendering engine and JavaScript interpreter. The iPhone SDK Agreement prevents us from distributing these components to iPhone users.
'''Firefox for === Palm Pre'''<br> ===We currently have no plans to develop Firefox for the Palm Pre/WebOS platform, but there is an [http://www.oxymoronical.com/blog/tag/palm unofficial port by Dave Townsend (mossop)].
'''Firefox for === Blackberry'''<br> ===Sorry, no plans. Due to its Java-based operating system and the inability to build native C/C++ components, Firefox is not compatible on the Blackberry OS.
'''Firefox for === Symbian'''<br> ===We currently have no plans to develop Firefox for the Symbian platform. See [[Mobile/Symbian]] for information on notes from an abandoned inactive project to port Firefox to Symbian.
'''Firefox for feature === Feature phones<br>''' ===We’ve targeted our development for smartphones. Standard mobile or feature phones are not powerful enough to support a great Firefox user experience.
