Mozilla press the accelerator on smartphones. Last February, during the Mobile World Congress, the Foundation unveiled its strategy: the practical launch of Firefox OS integrated into terminals for emerging markets and partnerships with 18 operators.

"The figures for March 2013 confirm power tablets, whose sales will exceed those of laptops in 2013. In terms of use, M-Commerce takeoff is well confirmed with nearly 3 million buyers who represent a formidable pool of growth for brands and distributors' commented Philippe Dumont, Rapporteur of the Commission Services Smartphones and tablets of the Mobile Marketing Association France.
