Sorry, Firefox 4 beta 1 is not compatible with the HTC Wildfire (or other phones with older processors like the HTC Droid Eris or HTC Magic).

There are experimental builds that you can try on your Wildfire at: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android

Hi. Thank you for this reply. Unfortunately the Fennec loads with enormous large interface. Are we, HTC Wildfire users completely left behind? Thank you.

We haven't adapted Fennec's interface to work on lower-resolution screens yet, but we plan to do this in a future version. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590777 for details.
