Skyfire mobile browser might give Opera Mini a run for the money.  Skyfire can do things Opera Mini and IE mobile cannot do.  Watch this video to see for yourself.  Wonder if Skyfire would work on the Instinct?

How is the end near for this phone, when the phone just launched, there is plenty of time for this phone, and the future will come.

<suggestion for your happiness> You've said before you're leaning toward taking the Instinct back and getting an iPhone -- how about just going ahead and doing that?  </suggestion for your happiness>



EDIT: Acceptable, HagNDaz?

Exactly i dont realy know why would you want to use your phone as browser if you have a computer at home, that only if you need to check some information while on the road, but surfing the net on the phone is not as fun as on the computer.

From what I've heard skyfire really murders your battery life.  As long as you have a method of viewing youtube generally (CorePlayer, for example on WM) I would opt for a much faster and less battery intensive browser like Opera Mini 4.

In-browser flash support also means pages will load all the flash-based ads, which is not very fun imo on a mobile device.

The other day, I was at Costco, and used my phone to transfer money from my savings to my checking so I'd have enough money. No other phone I've owned before was capable of doing that.

What ever you wish is acceptable.  I just like random tags.  I find them humorous.
