I presume this browser is going to have an install base of about 1? Depending on how many testers they have.
- Testing is doubting anyways, amirite?
- If you had read the article, it's going to come pre-installed on Moto and probably Samsung phones.
  
  So user error, should have got Linux.
  
  yeah the famous linux phones
  
  The only phone I have that can run a web browser is running Linux.
  
  I mean, Android is kind of not really Linux. They're cousins, at least.
  Then again, iOS is also built on Unix, if I remember correctly, so I guess they're all cousins.
