alphadogg writes "A new generation of Mobile Web browsers is finally making the Web a reality on handheld devices. The latest example is last week's beta launch of Opera Mobile 9.5, a native Web Browser for high-end smartphones. It's an evolutionary release for the Norwegian software company, but it comes just days after Apple's iPhone 3G, with its highly capable Safari Browser, went on sale. Other brand-new entrants, such as Mobile Firefox and Skyfire, are expected later this year, at least in beta form. But the evolving Mobile browsers are only one part of the picture. Mobile browsing is affected by the client hardware, ranging from the processor to the kind of wireless network being used, all of which have improved markedly. It's also affected by the design of Web sites being targeted, and there's new attention being focused on optimizing these sites for Mobile users." Read more of this story at Slashdot. ...

A lot of talk has been devoted to Mobile operating systems lately, with Windows Mobile, Symbian, LiMo and Android getting the lion’s share of the attention. But if you consider that the Mobile phone will soon be a place to make calls and access the Web through cloud services, then the operating system is less [...] ...

http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/l...on_your_mo.html "On Wednesday we brought news of Microsoft's Live Mesh cloud-based storage service, giving you 5 gigs of space for your files to come and go as you please. Today, the big M unleashed Mobile-optimized access to the service, meaning you can get to your data while you're on the run. It's not the full-on Windows Mobile client we're hoping for, but it's certainly a step in the right direction. If you're already signed up for the tech preview, point your favorite Mobile Browser (yes, even the iPhone's) at https://m.mesh.com - note the secure site - and have at it." Not to get ones hopes up but this is not the speculated Mobile client that will make transferring data from the cloud to your handset as easy as pie. However, what this Web application does, it does pretty well. Signing into the service you can browse through your Live folders and even download files that are in there. At the time of posting this I was unable to test downloading any other filetypes besides images so I am unsure if you could download a Zip archive or EXE file to your handset but if you wanted to get some images from your desktop computer to your handset and did not want to deal with the hassle of pulling out your USB cable and syncing, I would suggest giving Live Mesh a try. ...

When I wrote my Mobile Browser report earlier this year, much of the attention was on some of the established players in the space, with Opera, ACCESS and Openwave (which has since sold off their Browser business) all offeirng solutions. As I often do with my research, I try to use some of the products (the benefit of being an analyst in the consumer space, although sometimes it makes me wish I was an automobile analyst). I found that, as many know, that some of the Browser products from the likes of Opera far exceed what is the basic offering on most handsets, including most smartphones. My main handset, the Blackber ... ... Source: www.fiercecontentmanagement.com --- 2 days ago
Skyfire is taking aim at the big Mobile Web browsers--namely Safari and Opera--with a product that supports something the others don't: rich media (and streaming video and audio capabilities). Unlike the iPhone's Safari, which requires an additional application in order to view YouTube videos, Skyfire comes equipped with PC-quality capabilities. As Mobile browsers race toward PC-mimicking quality, Skyfire represents a giant leap forward in the market. Technically, it supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Flash, Ajax, Java, Windows Media and more. The initial private beta supports Windows Mobile 5 and 6 and Nokia Series 60, 3 rd edition ((N-series and E-series). It's not yet supported on Blackberry, iPhone, or Palm Treo.

Skyfire threw another hat in the Mobile Browser ring recently with the launch of its second private beta program . So far the new beta has been pretty limited in reach, but a stroke of luck came my way last Thursday during a break at MobileBeat 2008 . That's when I managed to win an HTC Tilt in a text-in-to-win promotion from the makers of the new Mobile Browser out of Mountain View, Calif. Within a minute of texting the company's name to a short code I got a reply telling me a new device running the Mobile Browser's second beta was waiting for me. I've been wanting to get some hands-on time with the Mobile Browser that's been making lots of promises of late and after a couple days of use, I'm thoroughly impressed. Web pages are loading faster than they would on Internet Explorer, Opera or Safari. Safari comes closest however. The support for Java, Flash and Ajax makes browsing even more PC-like than competing Mobile browsers. I checked out a few sites that typically have some problems on Opera, for example, but they're working fine on Skyfire. Video streams clearly on YouTube although I had some video framing issues when I zoomed in. The Browser's intuitiveness and ease of use is on par with Safari – simple clicks and drags do exactly what you expect them to, zoom and move the page in a smoother fashion. I've only used Skyfire on a Windows Mobile touchscreen device, but look forward to installing it on a Nokia ( NYSE: NOK ) Seri ...
Opera Software has opened up beta testing to the public for its new Opera Mobile 9.5 Browser . What is it? A better Web Browser for smartphones that run Nokia's (NOK) Symbian operating system and Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows Mobile. (Beta is for Windows Mobile only, commenter Lucas notes .) What does it do? Like MobileSafari on Apple's (AAPL) iPhone, Opera Mobile displays full Web pages, pans and zooms, and includes some neat features like the ability to save pages to your phone. We haven't had a chance to test it out, but this is more (incremental) good news for carriers -- ranging from AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ) in the U.S. to Vodafone (VOD), etc. abroad. We think better Mobile Web browsers make using the Mobile Web a more enjoyable, more productive experience. That, in turn, should encourage more people to sign up for monthly subscriptions for Mobile Internet access -- an important growth area for carriers.
