Skyfire: New Windows Mobile Browser that offers full web browsing


If the iPhone has the Safari, Windows Mobile devices have--Skyfire, sort of. Skyfire for Windows Mobile has not been formally released yet and the beta testing has not yet been underway, as far as I know, right now, it's just a concept. Skyfire introduced the concept of a full web browser for the Windows Mobile phones at the Demo 08. The idea is that this web browser can have access to any website using their windows mobile smartphones or PDA including websites with Flash, advanced Ajax, Java, etc. This mobile browser would also allow users to watch YouTube videos on the real website and not on the mobile version.

This is just something that windows mobile users cannot miss and would make their devices truly compete with the iPhone. You can sign up for the private beta here. Currently open for US residents with US mobile phone number.
