Mozilla's Firefox Reality web browser is now available
Mozilla's vision of a VR-first web browser is ready for consumers to download and judge.
Firefox Reality is a browser built entirely for virtual reality. While you may have read about desktop Firefox or Chrome adding WebVR support, Firefox Reality is a web browser that you actually use entirely inside a VR headset. You can visit URLs, search things and otherwise browse the 2D and 3D internet within the new browser all without moving a mouse, just your VR hand controller.
Firefox Reality is available on the Oculus, Viveport and Daydream platforms and is optimized to run on the latest standalone mobile headsets like the Oculus Go and Lenovo Mirage Solo.

Those 400 million worth of google dollards need to be used for something (not listening to the user of course, the user is always wrong).

Just a bit of investment, I imagine. It's hard to compete in a saturated market like the current browser market. If the VR browser market takes off, being one of the first ones there and having a few years development behind you is a nice boon.
