Skyfire Drops v1.0, After A Million Downloads

Youtube_n96_Skyfire.jpgThe team over at Skyfire have today released version 1.0 of their browser, bringing it out of beta. Skyfire is a “full” browser, like the well-known Opera Mini, but it’s even “fuller” — it can handle Flash 10, Silverlight, AJAX and Quicktime, meaning you can watch videos on YouTube and Hulu, and get the full versions of other sites. Pretty nifty.

Skyfire’s currently available for Windows Mobile and Nokia smartphones, but they’ve also announced they’ll be tackling BlackBerry next. What’s more, they say they also had a million downloads during their beta period, so congrats for that.

Download the app from get.skyfire.com.

  • It's been so good watching the development arc of the skyfire browser; "here guys, this is how you make a browser for a mobile".

    I don't know why everybody is drooling over this, isn't this a short term solution? All mobile phones will have native support for all this shortly.
