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

c'mon bud
Fennec is mozilla browser for windows mobile
just like opera or internet explorer that you might be using right now on your hd
ohh IC...not i got it.
Thanx

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.

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!

I just wandered over to the site to look for the heck of it and check it out!

Awesome trying it now, Been running the 2325 build that was from the diamond I think which was pretty sweet as it got rid of that stupid out of memory error. Been running great on my titan thus far. Will try this one see if anything has been improved or changed.
Thanks for the update!
P.S. Mozilla should be coming out very shortly as well!!! Also very excited to see how well that one runs!!
update: Well after using the beta 2 update. I still get the nice out of memory error after browsing the Neverwinter Nights 2 forums with a second tab open as well as other news sites. Never encountered this error with the 2392 build. Oh well. Back to that build until they fix this stupid error.
Can anyone else give their opinion on the new Opera Mobile? I haven't tried it yet. I was curious if it was better than Opera Mini and/or Skyfire.
It still seems too bulky for this device...it's better than IE, but Opera Mini beats in by a long shot. Still no flash either.
I think Opera Mini is by far the best browser ever. Obviously has its limitations... But when it comes to speed, its unbeatable. I can happily surf 4chan and jj.am, as well as any other website.

Oh okay. I have never used one of the many builds from the diamond. How stable is it?
Which build do you use for the Mogul? That might be just a little helpful to include

Well I use it everyday to surf and read new sites / forums including this one and excluding the load times it takes for opera servers to convert and realign the formats it's quite solid. I also am a mogul user and this is the build I use incase anyone was curious if I was even a fellow mogul user.
It is much more stable and can play flash 10 !

It seems it does not work with the T-mobile proxy plan for those who are wondering. I just tried it . It does seem to start up faster with my Herald.
Can someone tell me the SHA or MD5 hash for this file? It only seem to be getting the same file I got several days ago.
Cool thanks for the heads up, installed and ran good on my TP

Confirmed.
I just downloaded & installed. No reg required.
I still like Iris better for typical website rendering. Skyfire is a bit slow
would the installation of this version delete my currant favs?
Still no VGA rendering. Still sucks on VGA devices.

Skyfire itself uses a proxy, so its highly unlikely it will ever be compatible with another proxy.
Somekind of proxy... It's rendering sites on external server intead of device.
And the redering is slow for me. Uninstalled.
Works pretty fast and good for me. Thanks for pointing out the update.
It is finally getting close to the hype
I was excited when Skyfire was first released, but found that the simple things like text entry made it too much of a hassle to use compared to Iris. I see that now many of those shortcomings have been overcome. I'll still use Iris as my primary browser ( I love that most sites show me the "Iphone" version of their site ) but I'll be keeping Skyfire around this time at least for viewing flash sites. I was able to watch Hulu yesterday with Skyfire, and that was pretty cool. If thats all it was good for it would be a keeper.

+1. i dont need it to replace opera - just play video sites like hulu and thats good enough for me
does it still have problems with loading long pages and getting the bottom of them cut off?
Nice browser!
it is best browser i've seen - it requires some power, so do not be surprised with feeble htc units.
iris is ok, but no flash support, and its slower that it should at current state.
skyfire and opera mini - two things that good to have cooked into roms, imo.
416 mhz xscale is enough to handle skyfire.
loved skyfire the minute it came out, simply because of flash support and fast rendering of most sites.

Well as the demonstation is running on an X1 I'd bloody well hope so!
Yes it is, if you go to the opera website then to mobile, you'll see a link which says: "Opera Mobile 9.7 beta is ready to rev up your phone", underneath this, there is a date which that link was posted, 08/06/09 - obviously that date hasn't arrived yet. it not the full version, but it has the Turbo feature in it, which isn't the final version either.

So finally the beta versions is arriving? Can't wait to browse in TURBO speed. Yeah!
That 'turbo" thing looks fishy to me.....
think it's the same tech that opera mini use
where everything goes passed opera's servers which
compress pages so stuff load faster if you are on a
slow connection
but it really slow things down if you're on a fast one
which is why the feature is default turned off in opera 10 beta on pc
So whats the current news on it?

Well, if you head over to the Opera Mobile page (http://www.opera.com/mobile/), they have a news snipette there on the bottom right that it's out, the article is dated today. However, clicking through points to a "No press release at this URL" page. Sounds like it's gonna be out pretty soon later today!

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.

ya the site was download so slow and i want it! lol

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.

Anyone know of any tweaks for skyfire v1.5 that will make broswing on the htc hd2 better???
Also as everyone knows skyfire no longer supports flash, is there anyway to make it work this latest version by doing tweaks etc? or additional addons or something like that!
thanks.

The youtube videos still play... although you are right... this message is new. I guess Skyfire will sort it out in their next update.
skyfire are concentrating their interest on android platform now ,look at the version 2.0 for android ,and you will know that all we get is a sh*t

as i said before i regret buying android (also i visit x10 forum from time to another and post ****#y comments ) ,but i gave it to my small brother ,as not to through it into rubbish ,and iam back to my hd2 again . so i will still say (WE)
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.
