			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been looking for a decent web browser for my Windows Mobile phone lately.  For the life of me, I can&#8217;t comprehend why Windows Mobile 6 came with IE 6.  It&#8217;s quite frustrating to use &#8211; slow, featureless, clunky, and did I mention slow?  I tried <a href="http://www-archive.mozilla.org/projects/minimo/" target="_blank">Minimo</a>, and although it supports tabs, I thought the navigation on my <a href="http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=236" target="_blank">Motorola Q9c</a> was clunky.  I went to download Opera Mobile, but the download page says it&#8217;s for touchscreen Windows Mobile only, so that wouldn&#8217;t work for me.  I then did a Google search for &#8220;windows mobile web browser&#8221; and one of the early hits was for <a href="http://www.skyfire.com" target="_blank">Skyfire</a>.</p>
<p>I downloaded and installed it on my phone.  I was nervous, because I forgot my SD card and my internal storage was very low.  Amazingly, the download was a little over 500k, and there was enough room on my phone for it to install.</p>
<p>I launched the browser and was pleasantly surprised.  It was fast, easy to navigate, and the rendering was phenomenal.  I had always thought the download speed on my phone was slow, but I think it was a problem with IE 6, since pages render very quickly on Skyfire.</p>
<p>The only problem I had was when the installer asked if I wanted to install a search widget onto my home screen.  I approved, since it sounded handy, however, it totally mangled my theme, so I eventually switched back to my previous theme (easy fix).  Beyond that, I think the browser is great!</p>
