Skyfire.com - Mobile Web Browser

Skyfire is a mobile web browser – that is, a software application that will enable you to surf the web using your cell phone with the same versatility and features as if you were browsing using your personal computer. Version 0.8 of Skyfire has just been released, and some issues have been addressed in a bid to make the program stand apart from the competition. These include a new bar (named the “Super Bar”) which makes for easier browsing and search, and a start page which has been completely overhauled and redesigned.

A feature that has to be mentioned as it sets Skyfire apart from the rest is its ability to play flash videos. This means that using Skyfire you will be able to browse through video sites such as Yahoo! Videos or YouTube completely unhindered, as well as enjoying music sites like Imeem to the full.

A welcome addition to this latest incarnation is the ability to download files – not just word processor documents or .PDF files, but files that are characterized by being considerably bigger like .CAB and audio files.

All these features and additions are concisely explained on Skyfire’s official website. If you are always on the lookout for new ways of improving mobile web browsing, you are well-advised to visit Skyfire.com and give this browser a try in order to see if this new version of Skyfire is for you.

“Skyfire, a free downloadable browser, is the only mobile browser that delivers both the speed and media-rich experience similar to the PC browser.”

It stands as a flexible option when it boils down to mobile web browsing, and it has many unique features.

Aren’t there already many similar software applications? How does it compare with browsers like Safari on the iPhone? Is it free?
