Skyfire, a company which specializes in mobile web browsing technology, released a Beta version of their new mobile web browser which should deliver PC browsing quality to mobile phones. The idea is to allow mobile web surfers to do anything they would on a PC based web browser, without any restrictions or limitations. There are already mobile web browsers that are very good like Opera Mobile and Opera Mini, Internet Explorer Mobile, which all do a very decent job of presenting web content.

Skyfire promises greater speed, no technology limitations (supports latest Flash version, Quick Time and Java embedded content).

“We’re talking about full-featured PC versions of your favorite web sites. Skyfire gives you speedy page loads, full audio, video, images, dynamic Flash content, advanced Ajax, Java and more – just like your PC.”

Okay, that sounds pretty good. The browser is still in Beta, but you can sign-up for testing right away. There is only a version of the software for Windows Mobile phones for the time being (and US based numbers only), but Skyfire promises versions for Symiban as well. Here’s their video which shows a demonstration of the new product:

It’s free, so if you are in the US, have a Windows Mobile phone, sign up for the Beta release and get an early taste.
