Testing a $35 Firefox OS phone—how bad could it be?
Hey! You there! You've got it pretty good, you know that? While you're sitting there using your Internet-enabled device to read about some other Internet-enabled device, it's easy to forget that the majority of people doesn't have any access to the Internet at all.

Fair warning: we're going to talk frankly and honestly about the Cloud FX, and it's not going to be pretty.
