Skyfire Mobile Browser Promises Quick Speeds And Full Support

Skyfire brought their new mobile browser out of stealth this morning, though an actual download isn’t quite available. The new Skyfire browser will be downloadable for smartphones, with Windows Mobile 6 both Professional and Standard editions being available soon, and a Symbian client coming sometime next month.

This new browser uses proprietary technology to reformat websites for the mobile screen. Sounds familiar, though Skyfire claims that it also fully supports all current web technologies such as Flash video, AJAX, and Java. This makes it a very interesting aspect, and early reports from people such as the recently interviewed Phoneboy hint at a potentially very successful future for Skyfire. We’ll have more information once we can get our hands on a copy of the new browser. If you’d like to sign up for the closed beta, drop by their site (www.skyfire.com) and sign up for the release.
