Skyfire mobile browser gets full release
Browser promises full web experience on Windows Mobile and Symbian smartphones
Skyfire has released the full version of its mobile browser that brings a PC-like web experience to smartphone users.
Available now as a freedownload, Skyfire displays web pages as they would appear on a PC, and allows users to zoom in to read text in a similar fashion to the Safari browser on Apple's iPhone.
Faster, better, cleverer internet in your pocket
The release promises improved navigation, instant zooming (thanks, iPhone!), better support for social networking sites, a generally better overall experience, a more intuitive user interface and – essentially – better search.
You can also use your mobile to check out Google Street View, thus cancelling yet another one of the other key 'show off' features that your iPhone-owning mates have over you.
What is Skyfire?
Skyfire is a free, downloadable mobile browser that gives you a Web browsing experience exactly like PC browsing.The best mobile browsing experience
For the first time ever, on your phone, you can watch any video, connect with friends, listen to music, shop, and browse the web using the full-featured PC versions of your favorite websites. With Skyfire, mobile browsing just works - speedy page loads, full video, images and audio.
