Details

(Whiteboard: mothballed)

Seen while running the device on a long plane ride. STR: 1. Turn the device on. Do not launch Firefox. 2. Start doing some other operations on the device, such as playing games. 3. During the middle of the game, an error dialog comes up indicating Firefox has crashed. So either Firefox is not shutting down cleanly when it has been run previously or something else is going on to cause a crash to happen when I had even explictly launched the program.

Apparently the pre-installed card cames kill off other processes to make sure they have enough memory. That's probably making the OS think Firefox crashed. Might be able to have them use the message added in bug 523064 to quit Firefox cleanly.
This year we mothballed windows mobile development. See: http://blog.pavlov.net/2010/03/22/stopping-development-for-windows-mobile/ Marking bugs in the windows mobile / windows ce bucket as WONTFIX.
