Ok...seeing as how this really doesn't relate to the software itself...I'm gonna move this down to the basement. When Skyfire first came out there was a big thread discussing emails, sms, etc. This seems to be on the same level...so to the basement it goes.

Thanks for your understanding.

I actually can't see how smart fit could work better (for the pages that I've used it on anyway). It formats the text on message board posts so it fits just right when zoomed in. Maybe I just haven't used it enough to find pages where it doesn't work right.

There are four things that, if fixed, would make this the best browser that I could expect to see on a PPC:
- No "stop" button
- No way to view+copy the URL of the page you are currently viewing
- No way to save images
- No way to click on a link and "save target"

Agreed. Skyfire is a great browser missing some simple basic functionality. Here's a couple of things I've found:

Skyfire doesn't give you the option to make it your default browser. If I click on a link in email, it opens my other installed browser. I had to do a regedit to make it the default browser.

Even when I did a regedit to make Skyfire the default browser and clicked on a link in email, it would open Skyfire, but only to the Skyfire start page, it wouldn't actually follow the link.

Also, if I put my Mogul into sleep mode, chances are Skyfire will be closed when I turn the phone on again. (That could be a Mogul/WM issue though.)

Re: Skyfire boosted the video stream quality!

I just installed skyfire v0.6. Is this version skyfire beta or skyfire beta 2?

Re: Skyfire Support

Is there a way to get skyfire if I don't have a data plan. Right now I only use WIFI and I love opera mini, but when i sign up for Skyfire they send an SMS, but since i can't get SMS I'm stuck. Yeigo has the same SMS verification system, but i was able to contact Yeigo support and they verified and activate me. Skyfire doesn't have any support contact info that i can find.

Re: Skyfire Support

I believe if you go to there site and log in there is a link there for you to download it also.
