fennec: another unusable firefox derivate on windows mobile

Fennec is another unusable derivate of firefox, that belongs to the most unusable software caterogy on windows mobile… I trieod other alfa, beta, gamma versions of browser, but this is the most unusable…

Iris browser out of memory…

I downloaded the latest version of Iris browser (version 1.1.7). Unfortunately I had bad experience with this new version as I was not able to load a large wiki page, due to “out of memory” error.
I turned back to the older version I had installed (from 14 July 2008, do not know the version number) and the same page could be load.

skyfire another one that fails…

Downloaded skyfire another candidate for windows mobile internet browser. Well, this one fails to show it’s other half… I mean the application shows just half of it on the screen… 

opera mobile Out of memory before being inside of memory…

Installed opera 9.51b2  on eten m800. After loading cnn.com, got a funny message: Out of memory. Please close a tab to free memory. Well I closed one… the first one…

google chrome for pocket pc

Well, there is so far no google chrome for windows mobile devices, but there is another implementation based on the same engine (http://webkit.org/) and can be found at http://www.torchmobile.com/.

Google chrome is out, I worked with it on windows xp 1 day (the first day:), and can say, that among other features it is pretty fast compared to others: firefex, internet explorer, opera.

With iris on pocket pc is also had good experience. After trying the new opera mobile beta, the firefox minimo, iris is a revelation. Google chrome is also a revelation.
