Good news from Skyfire. Beta 0.85 of the Skyfire Browser has been released! Best of all, it’s now a direct mobile download and registration is no longer required.\u00a0
Until today Skyfire was only available to users in the US and Canada.\u00a0 With direct download and no registration I’m thinking anyone in the world should be able to use it now. The Skyfire website mentions that UK users will be connected to a new UK server but doesn’t say anything about other countries.\u00a0 Can someone outside of the UK, US and Canada try installing Skyfire and see what happens?<\/p>\n
I’ll post a full review of Skyfire 0.85 later.\u00a0 For now here are the release Notes:<\/p>\n

Downloading and Installing: <\/strong><\/p>\n
For Symbian users PLEASE UNINSTALL YOUR EXISTING CLIENT FIRST! This is due to a change in the way we sign Symbian installers and Symbian security measures require the uninstall. Sorry for the inconvenience. Uninstall 0.6, install 0.85 and then log in to your account (in Skyfire Browser) to get your bookmarks back.<\/p>\n
To install onto your Windows Mobile or Symbian S60 device simply point your Pocket Internet Explorer or Symbian browser to http:\/\/get.skyfire.com<\/a>. We will detect the phone and provide you the appropriate installer — download, install, and you are up and running!<\/p>\n
