So here is a pick of it in the start menu:

This is when the browser is first opened after you enter the 16 digit registration code M$ gives you.

A few details.

Home, shrunken to include the whole page.

Zooming in:

Navigating around the page. Note the smaller, transparent, rendition of the page in the upper right corner.

One of my favorite sites. A few things don't quite turn out like they should but thats because this in beta. The link selection is cool in that you press the dpad once then up/down/left/right to move to all the links on the page.

Quick search from the Navigate button on the left.


A few details about what is Deep Fish and zooming from the project site:

What is Deepfish?

Deepfish is a mobile browsing Technology Preview from Microsoft Live Labs. Deepfish displays content in a view that is closer to the desktop experience. The zoom-able interface and cue map allow you to quickly access the information you care about over the web without ever losing track of where you are.


How do I Zoom-In and Zoom-Out?

* ZOOM-IN
o Press the joystick to enable the grey view port; notice that the menu changes to Zoom-in and Zoom-out.
o Press the joystick or press the enter button (with view port enabled) to zoom into the area of focus.
o You can now navigate (Left, Right, Up and Down) the web page using the joystick or directional keypad
* ZOOM-OUT
o From zoomed-in mode, hold the joystick or directional keypad until the border changes from green to gray
o Release the joystick to zoom-out
o Press and hold again to hide gray view port
o If the above approach does not work, press the Back/Del key

Note: In zoomed-in mode a CUE-MAP is shown on the upper right corner; CUE-MAP shows your current zoomed-in location on the webpage. You can turn this feature ON or OFF via the menu options.

* PANNING
o Move joystick (Up, Down, Left and Down) to navigate the web page
