Mozilla based browser for maemo

Posted in Applications, Software Updates, Internet at 2:56 pm by Jonathan Greene

Mozilla based browser for maemo is out and ready to download! Though it’s only available for IT 2007v4 on the N800…

I encountered an immediate error on Gmail - Internal Error. Application ‘Web’ Closed. Google Reader seems to work better and load a bit more quickly… There’s a nice new RSS icon and preview feature for pages with feeds… always a handy thing! Aside from .wml support via a new plugin, there’s not much new on the extension front as we already received the gift of Flash 9 with the Firmware update.

I’ll probably stick with the Mozilla engine for a while and see how it goes. There’s a preference menu option which lets you switch the Web app between Opera and Mozilla which is nice - wonder whether there’s a contractual deal with Opera that keeps them in or perhaps the Mozilla code is not baked enough to be a full replacement just yet. This is on Garage currently… not on the more official Downloads site.
