Review of Skyfire published February 25, 2008 [General] | By Edward J. R. Skyfire is not really a browser but rather a viewer using server-based software, so it will be available most likely for a monthly fee and thus is not an interesting proposition for most users... ... but still it has some impressive features, including full Flash support (server-based tough, it doesn't include Flash Lite 3 for Windows Mobile). In this review one can not only watch a video demonstration but also one can see screen-shots and some in-depth analysis of this "browser": Skyfire does support Flash and Flash video though! So you can watch Flash videos just like you would on the desktop. I'm not sure if this is a good thing because once you're zoomed in you can only see a fraction of the video and it becomes very difficult to access the Pause button. [...] It's cool that Skyfire plays Flash videos, but I think this is more appealing in concept than in actual use. The small screen makes the video difficult to see, they often play automatically thus taking up valuable CPU resources, and there's no way to block or shut off Flash videos.
