Mozilla’s $25 smartphone isn’t going to happen after all

You can’t fault Mozilla for trying, but the company’s attempt to create a $25 smartphone running on its homemade Firefox OS has more or less been scrapped. Instead, the company has decided to put more focus on improving the Firefox OS experience and, through the Ignite Initiative that we reported on yesterday, potentially bring Android apps over to the platform. How those apps will work is unknown, but we do know that tapping into Android’s wealth of apps could be the key to Firefox OS’s success.
