As Nitin wrote on Friday, we did begin the process of inviting people signed for the beta to download Skyfire. Many of you are asking, “Where’s my invite to download Skyfire…I’ve been waiting…Did I miss my invite notification?†We are extending the invites at a very measured pace and yes, unfortunately many of you are still waiting. It pains us to have you wait. We’re very anxious to get you into our beta program. We know how important your feedback is. However, the number of sign ups for the beta program continues to be off the charts – more than we can accommodate today. We will get to everyone signed up, but initially we have to pace ourselves. We are inviting beta signs up to download on a first signed-up, first invited basis. If you registered for the beta program on our website, we will notify you both by email and by SMS as soon as there is room for you in the beta program. Please be sure that when you signed up for the beta program you entered the mobile phone number you want to download Skyfire on. We need that mobile phone number to notify you when it’s your turn to download. If you used a different number, please sign up again and use the mobile number of the phone you want to download Skyfire on. This is important and how we will notify you when it’s your turn to download. As reminder, first we are supporting Windows Mobile phones in the U.S. After Windows Mobile, we will support the Symbian platform in the U.S. – starting with Nokia N-Series and E-series phones. This could take a couple of months as we continue development and testing. We also hear all the Blackberry, Palm and Linux users who want Skyfire, but the wait will be longer. For our friends in Europe, Asia and around the world, we are working hard to roll out the service internationally. We are very anxious to get you into the Skyfire private beta as soon as possible. It’s only with your help that we’ll march to a stellar 1.0 product. We ask for just a little patience.
