if you use the web on your phone your still going thru some type of proxy, those who use opera mini use a proxy as well. i dont see the big problems im glad skyfire is working on the touch pro even if its not true vga

No opera mini uses a proxy. Opera mobile doesnt

I just did the same myself with the new IE Mobile 6 (check out No2Chems newest TP ROM to see what I mean)

I've really been looking forward to this. I've been very excited to be able to watch full length movies and tv shows from Hulu. Unfortunately, I'm disappointed so far. The browser is fast, and the video does play, and the quality seems quite good. The blemish however is in how clunky navigating and zooming feels compared to Opera. My biggest disappointment however is that I can't figure out how to watch a video from Hulu in full screen and in landscape. The awkward zoom controls are making it difficult to do this. Any tips? When I zoom in to the area to select full screen and click on the icon, I get a zoomed in video that still takes up the original players space, not full screen. I'm sure this is more my fault then Skyfire's so I hope I'm doing something wrong.

went to southparkstudios.com and tried to watch an episode. I was amazed to see the video worked, but unfortunately, no audio :/

did anyone have to do anything special to get audio working?

installed, tried it out and uninstalled it... the fonts were fuzzy everywhere. I'll stick to my Opera Mini, thank you.
