I am going to get the ebay dual OS phone, so i can test firefox OS, as well as kitkat.

The phone is on ebay list as below.

Firefox OS 1.3 Android 4.4 KitKat dual OS compatible

Your link to

2) Back at the gizbeat link you have a link at bottom of page called
please feel to ask in the comments

its a stale link
[Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]

Maybe its supposed to take me back to here?
I found this post at CPA by looking at left hand pane posts

3) while I am testing your links, the ZTE links take me to the manual page
---probably a web design feature we all love

maybe show the UK updates?

Looks like it takes a bit to setup build environment, I will be using "open c" this will be different than other builds. looks like zte provides already compiled updates for the phone as well.

I am just reading over most stuff, waiting on phone to get here.

Just a quick heads up, after playing around with Firefox OS and unfortunately finding out that the ZTE Open has 0 support both from Mozilla and ZTE for higher releases,
i managed to install ICS (4.0.4) on the phone to at least make it usable.
fwiw it was an interesting experience, but a cheap Android phone could have been had with better specs and JB (4.2) for that kind of money.
it works decent enough, but i'd advise everybody interested to stay away from ZTE FFOS phones.
FFOS needs some time to mature before it actually is usable.
