Get exclusive access to Skyfire beta now.

USA readers might like to take advantage of our exclusive arrangement with Skyfire to get access to their new browser for S60 phones.

The browser is aimed at exactly replicating the PC experience on your phone. It works by running a modified version of Firefox on a server and using this as the browser on your phone. This means it can access content other browsers can not reach (e.g. full access to AJAX based sites, Java content, Flash (full version, not just Flash Lite) etc.

All you need is someone with a US cell phone number (that hasn't already signed up). They can forward you the link after you register so you can download from anywhere.

yeah the browser is awesome. Of course it has its bugs but it is the first version for symbian s60, I think. But there is HUGE potential for it, just needs refining.😊
