HTC reportedly testing Firefox OS

Firefox OS is far from top of mind when it comes to thinking about mobile operating systems. But if rumours are to be believed, HTC is planning to test the OS for its phones. According to @upleaks, some developers from the Taiwanese brand are working on porting Firefox OS to different HTC devices. Again, this is all just a rumour at the moment and HTC isn’t commenting on the story yet. It would be interesting though what kind of smartphone they can come up with if this happens.
