Mobile browsers can transform a phone into a full-fledged web appliance with the right browser. We’ve covered many mobile browsers in the past, including the BOLT browser by the folks at Bitstream. BOLT is built on the ThunderHawk browser of old and is a fast, server-rendering browser. Videos can be streamed inline due to the server involvement, and pages render much like they do on a desktop. BOLT recently upgraded to beta 3 which has some significant improvements and is worth checking out.

This new beta version of BOLT adds copy and paste, the ability to organize bookmarks and, most importantly, the BOLT servers have all been upgraded to WebKit4. The browser should, thus, be faster and more desktop-like as a result of that upgrade. Bitstream has a full list of new features and enhancements here.

BOLT should work on most Java-enabled phones, and there is a version specific to the BlackBerry available. The download is free, so it might be worth a try.
