>Right, but in Firefox you also have "native" HTML5 apps, which give access to more hardware functionality than a regular web app.
Which negates the sole benefit of a web app in the first place since those APIs are not standard and not available on other platforms, so those apps are not portable. Maybe the APIs will become standard and implemented on Android and iOS etc, but at that point you can write those kinds of apps for Android or iOS too, so again Firefox OS offers no benefit.
