Would you use a Firefox phone?

Mozilla has been working on an open source mobile operating system, FirefoxOS, and yesterday showed off the operating system and some of the handsets it will be running on.

What do you think? Would you use a "Fire"? (That's what Jay Sullivan, Mozilla's senior vice president of products, has been referring to some of the companies partner's FirefoxOS-based devices as.)

0	No. Didn't see anything that was revolutionary at all about it. Android and iOS do everything I need to do on a phone anyways. answered Feb 25 at 18:58 JordanV 4.1k●62●82●124

0	Absolutely not. I saw nothing enticing or worth mentioning. It reminds me of those phones that were specifically made for children to use. Also being web-based doesn't help its cause. answered Feb 25 at 19:12 Kal 796●2●7●15

0	I would use Firefox OS if I received the phone for free and the monthly data rates weren't as high as smartphone data rates. answered Feb 25 at 19:17 catchatyou 20.7k●89●165●383

0	In today's world the operating system is complemented with its App Store, the most useful apps it has, the better it is, you can't just depend on the OS itself. answered Feb 25 at 22:22 Juancastim135 400●29●37●43
