(Telecompaper) Telefonica announced it will launch the first smartphone running the Firefox OS from Mozilla on 02 July. Movistar will offer the ZTE Open phone in Spain for EUR 69, including EUR 30 credit for prepaid customers and 4 GB microSD card. Telefonica said it plans to offer more Firefox devices later this year and will expand distribution of the ZTE Open in the coming weeks to other countries, such as Colombia and Venezuela. The ZTE phone features a 3.5-inch, HVGA TFT touchscreen display, 256MB RAM, 512MB internal storage and a 3.2MP camera. Aimed at first-time smartphone users, the phone supports messaging, e-mail, calendar, FM radio, camera with built-in style filters, location-based services from Nokia HERE maps and browsing via the Firefox Web browser. The Firefox OS comes with a new search capability that allows the device to adapt to the user's search enquiries. Swipe to the right from the home screen and enter a search term and the phone will customize itself to that search. For example, search for an artist and get results to buy songs, watch music videos, buy concert tickets and listen to them instantly without having to download and install any apps.
