Re: Great Browser for Touch??

Skyfire has a built-in flash inside the browser so it means you can play youtube and the likes inside the browser. You don't need to install third party software. It's the only browser I used to have flash built-in.Skyfire is still on it's early beta stage so it's still not perfect. I am one of the lucky to test it coz I've signed up the first day they open the registration. The videos on youtube is choppy though. I don't know maybe it's my connection. I'll give the smooth scrolling to opera 9.5. I think Opera 9.5 loads faster and scrolls smoother. Like I said, Skyfire is still young so there's a big potential on this browser.

This is correct. The browser doesn't have "Flash built-in" per se. Rather, the rendering is done on Skyfire's servers and then is viewed on your phone, hence the lag when you are trying to view a Youtube video.

I honestly prefer Opera 9.5 to any of the browsers mentioned.
