Mozilla is currently using Nokia Internet Tablet devices for the
reference platform as far as public testing for Fennec is
concerned. But users and developers who do not own a Nokia device
can also download the software onto a regular desktop to try
out.
The desktop version of Firefox is now used by around 30% of web
surfers, according to web analytics firms. Microsoft's Internet
Explorer is used by over 60% of surfers.
