When will Firefox Android Mobile be recompiled for the Android window on Playbook? Is their a sideload available?

As I understand the Playbook's ability to run Android apps is limited to pure Java applications. Firefox makes use of Android's native development kit (NDK) to use C and C++ code and thus not able to run on the Playbook.
