Firefox for Android: Does anyone know which ARMv has EE?

The "device" page in Entourage website only shows where to buy Pocket Edge.
There is no information, either marketing or technical, about Entourage Edge (10.2"), so I cannot check this information at their website any longer. EE has vanished from the website.

I have tried to install Firefox for Android yesterday, under Ermine.
I tried three versions (Fennec is the name given to Firefox for Android during development).

1) fennec-4.1a1pre.multi.eabi-arm.apk (the latest) ---> failed, installation aborted.

2) fennec-4.0b5-multi.eabi-arm.apk ---> failed, installation aborted.

3) fennec-4.0b2-multi.eabi-arm.apk ---> installation apparently done. The Firefox icon actually appeared in my desktop among the rest of the applications. But when I opened it, the message went: "Your device does not meet the minimum requirements".

I checked at Mozilla website and they say that the current version was developed for devices with ARMv7, Android 2.0 or higher, and 512 Ram.

RAM and Android version are okay, but maybe the problem was ARMv7?
Which is our ARM version in EE?

Has anyone been able to run Firefox successfully?
So far, I have read it is still too heavy and slow, it takes a lot of space, and still without flash, but with many potentialities and capabilities such as sync History, Bookmarks, Passwords, etc. with Firefox in all your other computers... This is a great possibility. I have Firefox synched (desktop and laptop) and it is very convenient.

Have a fine Sunday.

I recall hearing that the eDGe uses a Marvel chip that is ARMv5.

Yes, it is a Marvel Armada PXA168, which has ARMv5 architecture.
