Sorry we do not have a version for Blackberry devices. Firefox mobile runs on Android 2.0+ phones.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. From your answer, I assume that you work with Firefox. Can you tell me if Firefox has any intentions of creating apps for the Torch and Playbook? Thanks, Robert

   Due to the Java-based development system and inability to build C/C++ apps, the full Firefox browser will not be available on the Blackberry OS. However, a future version of Firefox Home may be available for Blackberry.


Some Android apps may be made to work on the Playbook which may not include the mobile Firefox (for Android) though. http://crackberry.com/press-release-rim-expands-application-ecosystem-blackberry-playbook-android-apps-playbook
