Skyfire Windows Mobile Browser 0.8 Improves Video Quality, Speed and Text Entry [Skyfire Browser]
Gizmodo — ... The browser still supports dynamic AJAX content, Flash, Quicktime, and Windows Media, but our hands-on attempt in watching a YouTube video started well but ended poorly. Skyfire is still (and will always) render stuff on the server side, which will lead to good compatibility but poor speeds, if your phone isn't pulling and rendering down the images fast enough. On the whole, we like 0.8 a lot and things are improved all around, but there's a reason why it's still in beta. [Skyfire] ...

HTC Touch HD SlashGear Review: Part 1
SlashGear — ... Flash and streaming media is not supported, unfortunately (there’s a standalone YouTube app to view videos from that site).  Over the past few weeks a number of Flash Lite 3.5 cabs have emerged, but we could get none of them to work on the Touch HD.  It means that, as we suspected, streaming sites such as the BBC’s iPlayer, Hulu and others won’t display.  We had hopes that new browser Skyfire might save the day, with its promise of Flash support, but sadly their current beta doesn’t support VGA or higher displays and, while doing so is on ...

T3.com All — ... Skyfire isn't a 'proper' browser, more of a content viewer, with all the serious processing handled by the company's proxy servers, the pages then being 'rendered' onto your phone. Just like the Opera browser in fact, but with more whistles, bells and streaming video. It's free to download, so all you need to worry about is your data contract. If you're on an unlimited deal, that's no problem. If you're not, a month of YouTube and iPlayer might seriously crunch your credit. Link: Skyfire (via ...

Pantech C820 Matrix Pro Review
Chip Chick — ... The Matrix Pro does not have Wi-Fi abilities, instead you have to rely on only 3G for surfing the net speedily. The Matrix Pro comes preloaded with Internet Explorer, of course. Using DSLReports’ Mobile speed test, the Matrix Pro came up with a 120kbit/sec result. Surfing the net with AT&T’s 3G network in NYC felt pretty fast, even when using bloated Internet Explorer. However, I would highly recommend downloading the free Skyfire browser which is a lot faster than I.E. and also emulates the closest desktop surfing experience possible on a ...
