The mobile browser space is filling up with upcoming versions of some of the major players right around the corner. I just heard from Access, makers of the Netfront browser for Windows Mobile, that a new concept version is now available for their browser. Netfront was the most full-function browser for a long time on the Windows Mobile platform but we saw a very long period of inactivity until recently. The new version of Netfront has the following features:
- Speed improvements
- Better navigation
- Animated zoom
- Page map
- Column rendering
This pre-release version carries the following restrictions:
- The trial period for this software expires on August 31, 2008
- Plug-ins are not supported
- No technical support is available for this concept version
- IfNetFront Browser is installed on external storage, the application’sbehavior becomes unstable when the device is turned on or off
- Integrated Windows Authentication for IIS is not supported
You can find more information (including a video) and download the trial at the Netfront web site.
