Any discussions with Mozilla? It would be great to get TextSecure as Firefox OS's default text message app. Also RedPhone should be the default phone app.

  Isn't the whole interface and all of the apps HTML5? I know that Firefox OS is Android under the hood, but can it run APK files?

    > can it run APK files? I don't see why it'd need to. It's not like iPhone is running the APK either.

    Firefox OS is not Android under the hood at all. "Firefox OS (sometimes abbreviated FxOS) is a new mobile operating system developed by Mozilla. It uses a Linux kernel and boots into a Gecko-based runtime engine, which lets users run applications developed entirely using HTML, JavaScript, and other open web application APIs." https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS

      It does use Android kernels, probably for the drivers.
