Mozilla has just updated the Firefox web browser across all platforms, bringing Firefox 5 to Mac, Windows, Linux, and Android. The update brings Do Not Track support to the mobile version, making it the first browser to support the feature across multiple platforms. Do Not Track allows users to decide when and how websites can track their browsing behavior.
The update comes as part of Mozilla’s new rapid-release development cycle, which aims to have a new version of Firefox ready for release every three months. It doesn’t look quite live yet in the Android Market, but should be coming online shortly. You can read more about the enhancements and changes in Firefox 5 at the source link below.

That’s great that Firefox is releasing DNT to the browser, but it does me no good if Flash isn’t implemented into the application. Seriously, why haven’t they primarily focused on this as a target?
Agree with above, with out flash.. it doesn’t matter how awesome this browser is. I just can’t use a browser with out flash, period.
Dolphon browser had this for a long time now, and also supports flash.
I just uninstalled Firefox from both my phone and tablet, as I found myself using Dolphin all the time. As much as I like Mozilla’s products, there’s no need for it on Android.
If these 3rd party browsers can’t enable gpu hardware there is bot a chance I’ll install and use them.sorry but stock browsers like the one in Galaxy S II are blazing fast for a reason..
p.s FLASH
The incognito in android too. Thats good to see in firefox5. :)
Only browsers I use are Opera and Dolphin. Dolphin has problems with some scripts and Opera works. Mozilla really needs to get flash working before anyone looks at this.
