Will this work on WM?

No, Mobile Firefox is a windows application that will run directly from a USB memory stick. The smart phone version of Firefox is known as "Fennec", but it is in alpha and currently only runs on Nokia tablets.

Can't wait! Soo tired of Opera Mobile!!

Very exciting, I watched the video and i have to say thank you (@ developers of firefox mobile). I too am so tired of opera. Cant wait to try a beta!!

still looking
I hear that a beta should be out very soon.

If you are tired of Opera, try NetFront! I use only this Briwser. After some customiations it is the perfect browsing experience! (this post has been typed in NetFront )

Help with SKYFIRE

If you don't know what Skyfire is please chek this:
http://www.skyfire.com/product
I have this skyfire beta but i don't live in the US and i'm not registered in their database so i can't try this amazing wannabe browser.
So i ask you if anyone could hack this beta and make it free to use for everyone.
Thank you guys, you are the best!
download skyfire beta here
http://www.savefile.com/files/1490271
Nope. Skyfire is server-side based.
Also, there are a lot of developers on here. Ask them how they'd like it if a CLOSED beta of theirs got cracked in such a manner. Just wait your turn and it'll come to you when they have a more polished product.

the point of this forum is to develop independant software to improve the platform. not wreak the chances of a company trying to do the same. the software is free to use. i'm waiting as well and looking forward to getting my chance, do it the right way mate
How about you sign up and wait for it like everybody else. Relax, just use Opera Mini, it's better.

fennec browser alpha 1 for winmo released

I have installed the new "fennec-1.0a1.en-US.wince-arm" and using it on my hd
I find it slow but i like the interface i hope its all ironed out by the final release
please guys install it and give me your feedback
cheers
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla....mobile-trunk/fennec-1.0a1.en-US.wince-arm.cab
fennec alpha 2
is alpha 2 only for windows desktop or is it available for winmo?
guys some help here
i'm testing it right now...and i must say a really like it....it's only early version but if it deliver what is promissing it will be big against opera....
now few things....zooming the page...i'm lost as i cannot find a way to do it....any ideas??
If you check in the parent folder of Mozilla's FTP there are nightly builds available. The newest posted version at this moment is here on the 14th May. There are newer 'mobile' titled directories, but 14th May is the most recent to contain a WinCE build.
What is it exactly?? what does it do??

There are clues on this page.
alpha 2 is for nokia
the alpha 2 was for nokia internet tablet i guess i was exited when i heard alpha 2 is released
I my opinion the interface is nice but not very finger freindly at the moment. closing of tabs is a pain with the fingers(you need a stylus)
every thing lags, zooming is horrible , addons are great but don't know how much it will bloat (wonder if hd can handle this bloat)
zooming is the main problem here

Fennec is mozilla browser for windows mobile
just like opera or internet explorer that you might be using right now on your hd

Thanx
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/nightly/fennec-1.0b2pre.en-US.linux-gnueabi-arm.tar.bz2
any ideea how this can be used?
Like it. It's slow and the GUI takes getting used to - zipping to left to obtain the navigation bar is... well strange. The graphics are well judged, and Images seem brighter? Java applets run nicely without sticking.
One drawback is that it won't flip to landscape, or is that just me?
Something to look forward to.
Blackstone stock Rom 1.56
great new browser could see it doin well as firefox and yep it is quite slow!
buh very fast browsing and acces to bookmarks and good feature of left side tabbing!! looking foward to next stage!
that is for linux

Do you know the difference between Desktop and Mobile, and look at the date. What a wasted thread.

Yup, that's the desktop version (which is old since Opera 10 desktop beta is now out).
Interesting thing is Opera.com is down right now (including their FTP and IRC servers).
Yeah, I was trying to get to the site, but it was all down. I pinged them, and their response times for a single packet are very large compared to most sites. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this.

Doubtful, keep in mind that Opera is located in Norway, so if anything they aren't going to be releasing a product at 6 or 7am there time, Opera typically releases products around 8 or 9am eastern time.

Android Froyo will support Flash...and it will be 10.1 so, so far...best browsing exeprience imo.
I wonder why in the world flash 10.1 is not supported on wm???
Why Doesn't Adobe Support WM for Flash 10.1
The program has been tested (in Android form) and as Steve Jobs said, 10.1 really slows down the performance of the OS. The only alternative is still Skyfire or a miracle programmer somewhere out there.
