Skyfire today announced the availability of version 0.9 of its mobile browser which includes tons of tweaks and new functionality:
  • New start page - integrated RSS, Facebook, Twitter, etc
  • Improved readability - adaptive font sizes, contextual zoom, etc
  • Widescreen / hi-rez support - Handsets such as the Xperia X1, Samsung Omnia and Nokia N80 are now supported
  • Improved Superbar - improved auto-suggestions
  • Multimedia downloads - there is now an option to download audio or video files streamed by Skyfire
  • Updated page rendering - faster page loads, better zoom
  • Updated plugins - Flash 10, Silverlight 2.0 and newest Quicktime are all now supported
There are also a variety of version-specific improvements and tweaks such as better email link handling in Windows Mobile and improved battery life for the Symbian version. Conclusion: Current users, update ASAP. New users, catch up.
Skyfire

Edit/Update: I just downloaded and installed from Skyfire.com and the version I installed still says version 0.85....

Edit/Update #2, Boy Genius Report has removed the blog post!

Edit/Update #3, everything is back and the new release can be downloaded.
