Most web activities[1] are simply not supported on the phone, even ones which make sense like "pick". So far, the only one I have found that does anything is view. But if you open it like this:

var openURL = new MozActivity({
                name: "view",
                data: {
                    type: "url",
                    url: "http://robertnyman.com"
                }
            });


Even worse - you can't dismiss the dialog, and "exiting" just closes the app, but leaves the dialog overlaying the normal tv. Had to power cycle to fix it.
