Today I tried to find a good browser for ICS... I then tried puffin free... I was amazed! I opened a YouTube page, and it loaded instantly! Then, what absolutely made me :O:O:O was that the video started loading!!! I have no flash player and I am on ICS! And video started loading like flash...
I am very surprised, mainly because this browser was an alpha version, and secondly that it is so god damn fast, and 3rd that flash worked on CM9!!!!

If you don't know what Skyfire is please chek this:

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.

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.

It has been optimized to run Firefox from any CDROM, DVD, USB Drive, or hard drive. No installation is required.

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 )

I am so used to iphone Safari browser that i simply hate both the internet explorer and the opera installed in my hd2.What other options to buy or download do i have?
What big thing is Opera Mobile lacking that you're used to in iPhone Safari?
I've used iPhone Safari, and I own an HD2 and use Opera Mobile, and as far as I can discern you're just fanboying.

Hey...a couple browser issues:
1. Given my appreciation of Chrome I had reason to expect Froyo browser performance to live up to Google's 'fastest mobile browser ever claim'. I think its faster than 2.1 browser but not at all faster than Skyfire and other browsers in the Market. (Based on avg. time it takes to download certain sites).
2. Hey guys how can we experience the 'full glory of web pages if the browser uses mobile versions of sites?...Despite having desktop user chosen? Any tricks I need to be aware of?
thanks
Look up how skyfire works, that is why it renders pages faster, same with opera.
Yeah well Opera fir sure....much poorer rendering of pages....
Skyfire not so sure....those pages are as sharp as stock.
Opera. Mini and skyfire use outside servers to view the pages, tub rerender them for mobile. This is why nothing secure, I.e. banking should be done with them. Opera mobile,fennec, IE mobile, and Google (nexus one stock) browsers. Render within the phone. Not sure about steel though.

Good info...didn't know.
I believe on android skyfire, only uses servers for video, web is done on the same framework as the stock browser.

Type "about:debug" into the URL bar and hit "Go" on the keyboard [the arrow won't work]. Then go to settings > UAString [at the bottom] and change to Desktop. Unfortunately this isn't a permanent solution because it resets back to Android at the end of the session. For more convenient switching we're going to have to wait for CM6 and other Froyo based ROMs.
Why would you want to use a desktop version of a site if there is a mobile version available, thats STUPID
Probably because mobile versions are often lacking content.

This is the dumbest comment ever made on a forum... I salute you ftw on that.... not to be rude but seriously ...
Desktop is way better. I hate mobile versions.
STUPID....of Google to try and replicate mobile internet pages that render exactly like your deskstop. STUPID Google. Thanks....Ill settle for the mobile rendition.

This is true. SkyFire for Android only proxy's the Video content. They didn't take the time to build a full blown browser for Andoird. They bought the Steel Browser to work as the base of theirs and just changed it up for the video proxy.

I don't get your post
But it is stupid to want to use a desktop version of a site on a mobile device, thats like trying to use Win 7 on your nexus!
The claim wasn't about rendering speed but for javascript performance
Mobile versions if websites miss content.
The few I saw before changing to desktop didn't allow pinch and zoom either.
In fact they couldn't be resized at all.

Think there is a few things you don't get...
And, I don't understand the speed complaint either.
The browser is amazingly fast.
The phone un general, absolutely rocks now.

Like what?
I get that mobile versions may be missing content, but that just means that the developers of those site need to do their job better
What I don't get is how having a website specifically designed for type of device you are using is a bad thing?
If you Disable flash The browser is much faster!

Hi to all! From a 3 months i'm a happy user of S8500. But one thing is very annoying, the lack of a good internet browser that supports multi touch + flash /why not, iPhone got it from Mozzila/ + uses the full screen /not like the Dolphin in Bada 1.2/
Do someone know such miracle exist?
There are not 1 but 2 such miracles. Names are - Opera Mini 5.1 and UCWeb 7.4.5

I think the only devs who have the skills and the possibilities to port fennec are the devs of Mozilla. As far as I know there are only two OS that can use Mozillas's Fennec browser at the moment. Android and Maemo/Meego.
