Mozilla has published details of the first smartphones to be powered by its Firefox operating system.
Two handsets are to be made by a small Spanish firm called Geeksphone and will be targeted at developers ahead of the system's formal launch.
The platform is based on the HTML5 web programming language and is being marketedas offering software writers more "freedom" than alternatives.
However, it faces competition from other soon-to-Be-released systems.

2013/01/24 14:40Blackberry 10, Ubuntu, Tizen and Sailfish are all due for release for smartphones before the end of 2013, joining a market already occupied by Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Blackberry 7 and Symbian among others.
One analyst said he did not believe there was enough room in the market for all to survive.

The two new handsets are codenamed Keon and Peak.
Keon is the more basic model, including a 3.5in (8.9cm) screen,a 3MP (megapixel) camera and Qualcomm's low-end Snapdragon S1 processor.
Peak has a bigger 4.3in display, an 8MP camera and a more powerful Snapdragon S4. Mozillanoted this was probably"slightly faster" than the first generation devices that would be marketed to the public.

It said that when devices went on general sale they would be cheaper than many alternatives and would be targeted at emerging markets.
