If you, like us, are tired of the so-called
browser wars trying to woo us with barely identifiable, context-dependent
speed differences, this might be of interest. Firefox is about to get a whole lot more sentient on us -- at least those of us with accelerometers in our hardware -- courtesy of a new device API that is capable of maintaining a webpage's vertical orientation relative to the ground, no matter what sort of
salto mortale the underlying machine (Mac or otherwise) might be doing. Think of it as the cherry atop your
Windows 7 multitouch tablet cake. Originally intended for mobile platforms only, this software will make its way into version 3.6 of the full-fledged browser -- and you can find an early demo of what it can do just past the break.
