To properly play lossless Blu-ray contents back will require a high horsepower computer or powerful HD media player to support the data rate involved in MKV container.

I don’t like the fact, that you have to have a data plan, couldn’t they make this work on wifi or something.

Opera 10 just released and I like it better than SkyFire. I keep losing connection with SkyFire on AT&T. I think they are trying to block their servers.

skyfire is now out of beta and is in 1.0 release. I downloaded it a couple of days ago and a lot of annoyances have been resolved. Zooming is much more intuitive on non touchscreen devices and the app just works better all around. Links are no longer sketchy. It does seem to take just a bit longer to load pages. Still the best app for windows based devices out there.

^ david thanks well sorry for the REALLY long response but i realised that when the display light turned off the phone would be sensitive. so al long as you keep it from dimming it works perfectly. thanks for your help.

A-rod3, i don’t know of a way to decrease the scroll wheel sensitivity only for Skyfire .. You could try posting in the forums under “how-to” or “troubleshooting” if you don’t get an answer here (I think the forums are viewed alot more than the comments on the posts)

ok so i installed skyfire and it works great. but it is very sensitive as as soon as I scroll my wheel it goes to another page. Is there anyway to control the sensitivity? thanks in advance.

Skyfire is s l o w in my area. Nearly unusable.
Opera Mini is much faster, no audiovisual though.
I still use Opera Mobile the most, I have to have text editing!
Also tried Iris Browser from Torch Mobile, ibisDX, & jB5.
