One of the worlds more predominant browsers has been up on the Android market for quite some time in BETA form, at which time it supported ARMv6 and ARMv7 processors, since its full release it is now only supported for ARMv7 processors. The final release also does not support Flash, although the intention is to support it in future releases.

Firefox 4 Mobile currently runs on Google Nexus One, the HTC Evo, and the Motorola Droid X, and don’t forget about the Android Tablets, Firefox 4 is fully supported on the Samsung Galaxy and Motorola Xoom.
