PLS I NEED OPERA BROWSER FOR I MATE PDA2K
i'm looking for the same thing. right now, i'm using netfront.
It seems it is available for wm2003 on smartphones but not yet for pocket pc.
http://www.opera.com/pressreleases/en/2005/06/30/
guys i'm also hoping for it..... but i think that all platforms are supported "including smartphons from HTC" except for PPC platforms.
I don't think it will be available. However, Minimo would be worth the wait. It's a Pocket PC browser made by Mozilla. It's not out yet. Dig it up from www.mozilla.org. I found one of the beta builds from the developer's blog, but I couldn't get it to work. However, we all know Mozilla will provide something better and great.
Also on the developer's blog are screenshots. I'm sorry I forgot the URL.
As for what's available now, I only need tabbed browsing, which is provided to me by MultiIE.
Whats good in OPERA?!
Different engine. Some people might not like IE. I don't think it has tabs. I wouldn't want it.
There will be a version

Nice but we gotta wait also. Plus I don't see them mention tabs!

Like many others, I was too late for the Deepfish beta (got the cab, couldn't activate)
Came across this little item on a news article and am about to install onto my shiny black ROM. Says for WM5, but will give it a shot anyway:

Anyone else got this/ssen this?

Tried it, more like Mini-slow.
erm - you know what, you're right.
What a pile of poo - google wouldn't even load properly!
I used opera, but it wasn't too much better.
Now I've got PIE plus from www.reensoft.com. lets you do tabbed browsing and more.
I agree
I've tried every single browser out there. Minimo is by far the slowest with loading. I didn't even try out all of its functionality because I couldn't handle how slow it was going. One nice option is the beta version from Opera. Right now you can download it without any limitation on the time you can use for and it's free. Give it a shot. I guarantee that you will like it more than Minimo.

The Opera 8.65 beta expires on June 1st.
I think the opera beta plays on for existing users.
picsel browser
I have just starting using Picsel Browser which has been extracted into a cab file from a samsung win mob 5 phone and is floating around on the internet (i had to brave howardforums to get it). I think its excellent, has the same graphical premise as deepfish, but with plenty of other features.
Also make sure you don't miss my UPDATED Web Browsing Bible ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=301009 ); now, it also contains a Picsel review!

LOL... No ****.
memory eating
Is it just me or is minimo somewhat memory heavy?
Anyone try it? I just ran across this add-on, and I'd really like to use it. However, I dont see that it says its for WM6 at all, and I wanted to know if anyone has it installed without any problems?
http://www.reensoft.com/PIEPlus/
No problem at all. I found that really useful. Give it a try.
I use it with no problems as well.
Works great!
opera 8.65 is much better.
Go for opera it is so much better.
You guys really like Opera?, the version ripped from a ROM, that doesn't require a key, can be found at the link in my siggy, I made it uninstallable.
I use PIEPlus, and I used to have Opera on here, I kinda found Opera to be a bit slower than PIE, and just kinda clunky feeling, but there were some sites that I need Opera on, but that's very rare.
All browsers I've tried are crap. Typing web addresses on any PDAs is tedious, so you would think that browsers would make Favorites easy to get to - not 3-4 taps!
PIEPlus is the only way to get easy Favorite access but you shouldn't have to install another app.
What's the logic????????
Works om wm6, and like it use to have opera but cant find a keygen for it
and i didnt like swapping the dll option sooo ya works well
This is a beta of the new browser from netfront. It lets you use touch movements. Kinda like Safari for the iphone. here is the linkhttp://www.access-company.com/products/netfrontmobile/browser/35_wm_tp.html
I am loving so far.
Enjoy
Was released quite some time ago. Yes, its better than any other browser including opera.
I even wrote a video review here.

I think the whole company is dead - or gone to a totally different distribution model. Can still download 3.5 concept version, but nothing else.
Can't find any commercial versions to buy anywhere on the web, either.
They seem to have gone into partnership with NTT and only make for OEMs now, mainly Linux OS's. Real shame if we can't get a WM5/6 version. It's the best browser out there at the moment with some great functionality.
If only the concept version had plug-ins enabled then I could live with that version. 3.4 was also great until 29 Feb when it's timebomb activated.
I now see that Opera 9 was actually better. Only bad thing is that, at the moment there is only a VGA version. Works awesome on Athena. Since there is 128 MB RAM in Athena, I can't really comment on anything about Opera's memory usage. Maybe I'll try having a deeper look at it sometime later. Opera will win ofcourse.
HTC has chosen Opera too. Their new Diamond is supposed to have a customized version of Opera 9 in ROM! Awesome

Carty..
I'm using this browser also but unfortunately I can't say it's a great one.
my browser detail: v3.5. BuildNo: 435. Beta version: No
anybody need the cab installer of it?
Sure, if it's different than what's on their website.
Net Front Browser 3.5

Hi my friends, i just have a small request. Where in this world i can download the IE6.cab. I have look all over tha place with no success and i know is there, can someone guide me, THANKS....
Good Luck
I don't think you're going to find it around here. It's not liked very well. Most everyone here uses Opera or Skyfire.

I know my friend, i use Opera & Skyfire but i just want to see how it works, not to reed peoples comments !!!!
Afaik there is no cab file. IE6 has to be cooked into the ROM.
Its a bit like in windows where IE is built into the OS, but as we know WinMo doesn't support the kinda patching you would need tood.
Anyway, its still awful, yes flash works, but it eats ram ect!
I also need Internet Explorer from wm6, not necessarly a cab file, but at least the .exe of PIE.
I flashed a wm6.1 rom, and the wm6.1 PIE just sucks, I really want the older version back. I use opera and other browsers but in some cases pie is the best. Anyone who has an extracted rom/files from a rom please upload the PIE from wm6.
Just wanted to inform everyone that skyfire 1.5 will be officially dead on December 31st. Guess they like the money more than those of us who helped get it to that point.
Anyway, I have switched over to Iris, and found it much better. just wanted to let you guys know.
this may be a good place to list some of your favorite browsers as well, so if you got one that you like, share the wealth!
I am using UC browser and it's fine
also opera 10 but there is a problem with shortcuts
I AM using B7320

This is not news. They might as well have said they would stop support on DEC. 9, 2009 when they released SKYFIRE 1.5. They have done nothin but lie to their supporters since then. Everytime they would release an update for Android they would turn WM support of for the weekend and say it was for maitanence. Then turned us off for three weeks for IPHONE. I can't blame em for goin after money but they could've been honest with us.
Anyone know any mobile browsers with flash support? I found one but don't really like how the videos play
It won't be until December. It is now. Skyfire no longer works on my phone. It simply gives me a pop-up box that says Skyfire will be no longer supported, but it will not go further. It simply closes out.
I loved Skyfire, but now I guess I am on the hunt for a new mobile browser.
[using WM6.5 standard at the moment]
Same thing here, I needed to get the non-mobile view of Delta Airlines website (for some reason, Opera and IE render mobile even though I have Desktop View set) and it said can't connect.
Strange, they only say v1.0 support ending, nothing about v1.5 being turned off. Unless the meant 1.x instead of 1.0, but that's not what they put.
So...any other equally good browsers (preferably with flash & other embedded streaming support) that will work on WM6.5?

Support for all WM versions will end on DEC. 31st. They will never develop another build for our devices. Our only chance of using Skyfire in 2011 will be by porting the ANDROID builds or somehow hacking the Skyfire servers but I doubt these things will ever happen. I recomend trying UZARD for a flash enabled browser but its only in beta release. I think they have also walked away from WM. They were supposed to release two versions which have been advertised on their site for at least 11 months but never released them. I don't think UZARD will turn off support but I would not expect another build. There is videos and reviews of UZARD WEB S & UZARD WEB H from back in FEB. 2010 but they never came out as I stated before probable cause they were focused on WP7. They have released builds for ANDROID & BLACKBERRY but haulted the WM builds. Oh well maybe one of the great developers on here will build a flash browser, thats our best chance of having a flash browser in the future that would be updatable.
try uZardweb...the function is almost the same like skyfire..

THANK YOU!
This is the first browser like SkyFire I've seen that actually works and still supports Windows Mobile! I can once again view sites that require streaming embedded video and flash!
It would be nice if the toolbars would minimize to full-screen, but I can live without that as long as it keeps working.
Anyone who wants a link, here it is:

Will give it a try!

Thak you zanpaktao!
For those of you kind of disapointed of SKYFIRE, I tested the uZard Web Beta Ver.2.0
Excelent choice...
Just installed uZard and I'm very impressed
I used skyfire for a while but since the release of the iphone ver and their servers broke, I switched back to opera, But now I can watch my flash vids in my browser again
Thanks for that!
Honestly, I will never use Skyfire on another Mobile OS because of how they treated their WinMo user base.
