Re: Most stable WM 6.1 kitchen or ROM

No worries. I loaded skyfire before I had to hardboot my phone. It ate my battery pretty quick but my battery is 2 yrs old. It's probably just not retaining charge well when in use anymore. I tried to watch videos on www.veoh.com as everyone can do Youtube. Why Veoh?? well the use Flash 9 or something. And all the other ppc browsers support only up to 7 since adobe didn't put out anything higher. I got further with skyfire than any other browser (netfront, picsel browser, opera but it still didn't play the video or it wasn't very usable like the streaming was just way too slow I can't remember. Tried it once and gave up. I haven't reloaded it since. I have the beta 2 load i think. Skyfire kinda "cheats" if you want to call it cheating since your pages go through their servers and then is optimized and sent to your phone. Not like the other browsers that download everything to your phone and then it renders it. It's a clever way of making whatever new thing that comes out on the net still work on your phone without having to update the next codec or browser app etc...so kudos to the skyfire team and can't wait till the matured product hits the streets. skyfire was a cool autobot. Right now I just use netfront and picsel browser. Now those are pretty good browsers. I wish picsel kept making new versions...they really had something there. I think their zoom in and out is much faster than safari on iphone.

Hehehe...now who's taking things off topic....:P
