SkyFire Alpha 2 Delivered To Testers Posted in News & Rumors on 12 May 2009 10:03 by Bla1ze |
Don't let the blurry picture fool ya. SkyFire is shaping up to be a very nice browser for BlackBerry devices. Recently the Alpha 2 build was delivered to beta (Alpha?) testers and with the list of bugs that are being sorted out SkyFire is once again showing that they are indeed dedicated to bringing an awesome browsing experience to BlackBerry smartphones. As with all Alphas though, in fixing some bugs they have indeed broken a few other things but such is the way with building an app like this. Hopefully (sometime soon!) we will see a public beta considering how much effort is being put into the early-stage Alpha.

I can't wait to be able to get my hands on this browser for my Bold.
I am SO READY for this Browser...! I had it on my MotoQ9c and feel in LOVE with it....Bring on SKYFIRE!!!!
hahaa ME TOO! only mine wasnt 9c, just reg motoQ.. cant wait to use it on a phone that's so much faster (storm).
But, please don't rush it, either. Take your time, due your due diligence Alpha testing and re-testing, and bring us a product that we can use immediately after OTA download with minimal bugs, quirks and workarounds.
Thanks!!
This would surely make up for the news that verizon won't release a new os for the storm. Too bad skyfire isn't in testing for the storm yet. It is better than any browser out there.
Is that in browser video I see? That would be amazing!
Even it is in testing, This skyfire is very suitable for Blackberry.

Can't wait to use it, can we get a sneak peak of it on a BB now? BGR needs to make a youtube video of it....
Have it on my TMo Dash (which I use as a WinMo test-bed) and LOVE it! Bring it on guys!
have been waiting for a long time ï¼
How do i go about signing up for beta testing of this browser? im definitely excited to see its almost out for public beta, but i'd love to give my feedback on it and test it out too!
anyone know if they are testing this on the Storm? or is this just a bold thing for now
Show the storm some love.
would love to see it for the storm. We need something great for the storm.
In browser videos!! Flash! Please please please!!
this will change the way i use my blackberry....
I can't wait for this browser. It will add so much to what you are able to do! Hulu here I come! I would honestly pay $50 for an this once it was bug free, best part is it should be free for us!
can't wait.
should kick ass
Come on.... we need one :(
Well I'm using Bolt at the moment, it's gonna need to beat that...
Hope it comes soon. Been checking every day.
One thing I hear is a lot of people beating up Bolt. There is nothing wrong with it--people forget its still a beta itself. Anything can happen with that browser, as well.
Skyfire will be great, but no one knows its footprint as of yet.
I think Bolt is a nifty little browser, whereas I can do things and enter sites I couldn't with Opera Mini. For example: Sprint's website. And mobile banking sites.
But to keep on subject, I can't WAIT for Skyfire!!!

Biggest thing that my BB is missing is good flash support. Already excited for something other than Opera to try for a browser.
the wait the wait we'll never get to test this browser. mi bolds needs it
looks nice...i already use opera mini & bolt...i want to see if this one is better..

I just want to know how to get on the beta(alpha) test group:)
i wanna test tooo
I've been playing with this on a WinMo device. It's SWEET! Supports BOTH Flash and Silverlight even! If the Blackberry version is anywhere close, it's going up there with Pandora for my must-have apps
