Here's a mockup of what a version of Firefox for the iPhone might look like. While Mozilla has not yet announced whether they will port this to the iPhone, they are working on a mobile version of Firefox for both touch-screen and regular smart phones. They have stated that they will be supporting Windows Mobile and Linux devices, and that "support for other Platforms may be added in the future." A working UI mockup of Mobile Firefox can be downloaded and run through Firefox.
It is pretty evident that the Mobile Firefox team was inspired by Mobile Safari on the iPhone in their UI design. An iPhone version of Firefox would bring two things to the iPhone: 1) Extensions such as Adblock and Greasemonkey, and 2) Support for XUL, which could be used to create web applications.

Hello there. Interesting new blog - great idea for one.
About the Firefox on the iPhone post, that is something I would definitely look forward to, if they are creating the browser (although Safari is very nice) but we'll just have to wait for the SDK and see what happens. When does it come out, by the way?
I believe I am the first here in your to make a comment!! Good luck and I hope your blog will last and be yet another success.
