The mobile Firefox team has some neat new features coming for the next Firefox for Maemo release, currently labeled as version 1.1, as noted by Mark Finkle in a blog post.

Among the new features:

  • Form assistant improvements, including autocomplete

  • Start page redesign

  • Auto update add-ons
  • Portrait support on N900
  • Context Menu with Open in New Tab and Save Image

  • Web content theme update
  • Manage site preferences (clearing passwords and others)

  • Clean up site menu
  • Use volume keys to zoom on N900
  • Save page to PDF. This features has been postponed a lot of times for the desktop version.

It’s worth noting that most of these new features have already landed in mobile Firefox, and a beta is expected for later this week, with a final release targeted for May.

Much expected Firefox for Android, the other current Firefox mobile platform, is also currently  under development, and nightly builds are expected soon.
