And until today... its not much more than a lock screen, some webapps .. and some android ****

"Boot to Gecko (Firefox OS) uses a kernel derived from Android [...]"

"The first time you flash your phone, it must have Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) installed. The process will not work correctly otherwise. Once you've done your first install of B2G, however, you can simply update on top of it."

Gotta give Mozilla their dues... When you consider all of the other would-be competitors out there with their whacky funding projects and marketting efforts, the Mozilla foundation have managed to get their OS developed, put it on a device by a reputable manufacturer and sell it at a very pleasing price that suits everyone without any fanfared blow-hard promises. And well before all others too.

Bravo!

I should really try this on the Raspberry Pi and give the updated b2g image a blast.

You do realize this thread was started back in January, right? I think the main Firefox thread was started in April.
