Hah! computer = compare. I guess you can see where my brain is at today… ; )

I wouldn’t get too hasty with the shame-on-you’s – this is a new product, and it wouldn’t make sense to go all out with supporting everything when they’re beta testing the core functionality. I see nothing at all wrong with starting with the 320 x 240 non-vga variety, since this is where a large market exists for the product for testing.

I am sure once they get it good and tested they will expand the devices that are supported. Why in the world would you computer a brand new beta-level application with an established product like Mobile IE or Opera?!?!

I signed up on 2 Feb, and received an email confirmation then, but as of now, I have not received a text message. Are they sending text messages throughout the day, or do you think maybe I gave them the wrong phone #?

Should I go on their site and sign up again? I have a Samsung i730, so it should work okay when I get it.

about opera mobile 9.5, from what i have read its supposed to support flash light. but how that translates to youtube or similar i dont know…

but all in all, this is a nasty setback. if it had worked with vga or larger, it would make for a very intersting browser in combo with redfly, when that starts shipping.

on my 8525, when i followed the link with the netfront browser (which is default), it said my device wasn’t supported. I then typed in the link in internet explorer, and it worked.
Just a heads up to everyone.

Yeah, they had me going for a minute too. I got the email like you did and I was so eager to download it on my Advantage only to get a message that said thanks for confirming the Beta. Your device is not supported at this time. Bleh!

Mann!!! this really s**ks
I had been in a wait for a browser that can do flash video like youtube or to watch those video online.
Skyfire was the only one promising until i just read your post that it will not support VGA.
Opera and Netfront hasnt said a thing about the youtube support either.
Opera 8.65 on my U1000 is fine altho certainly there could be alot more improvement, but the only thing that it is lacking is no video flash support.
Some might have tried the TCPMP plug-in, but who would want to switch application on mobile device.
