Re: new skyfire goodies
I've never tried this browser. I'm gonna install it and check it out as I am not a fan of Opera.

Thanks for sharing the info!

Re: new skyfire goodies
I like Skyfire a lot but one of my biggest gripes with it is the choppy scrolling.
I do like how fast it loads pages and flash but I like the way Opera scrolls.

Re: new skyfire goodies
I noticed some changes when my bookmarks disappeared and then came back later.

like Skyfire but the text formatting, scrolling and rendering are nowhere near as good as opera mini... Though Skyfire does have much more functionality.

Re: new skyfire goodies
I was one of the original skyfire beta testers also, so I always like to see them make improvements to it. I have always used a 2 browser arrangement with both Opera and Skyfire. Opera is smoother overall, sharper vga definition and faster loading. Skyfire is great for Flash apps and has it's own unique advantages. My 2 biggest gripes with Skyfire are that is a power hog, although it's gotten better and the pseudo vga just isn't ideal. Both browsers are on my list of mandatory ppc apps though.

Re: new skyfire goodies
Does the "flash" in Skyfire sometimes not work for any of y'all?
