A look at Skyfire's Web 2.0 mobile browser

The Skyfire mobile browser has finally come to the UK, albeit in beta form.

The web browser is notable for being able to natively handle Web 2.0 content, such as that based on Flash. Rivals such as Opera Mini tend to rely on website creators, such as YouTube, to make optimised versions of their site for the specific browser.

The pictures in this gallery show Skyfire working on a Nokia E71. A range of Nokia Eseries and Nseries handsets are supported, particularly those running the third edition of Series 60. Phones running Windows Mobile versions 5, 6 and 6.1 are also supported, at both QVGA and VGA resolutions.

According to the company's Facebook page: "Supporting the BlackBerry is definitely on Skyfire's roadmap".
