- Skyfire, the AJAX & Flash-capable mobile web browser wunderkind has matured a great deal from its early Alpha versions on Windows Mobile.
- Now supporting WinMo 5&6 and Symbian s60 3rd edition handsets, Skyfire has a larger market to work with but does that market want to work with Skyfire?
- Skyfire faces rapidly increasing competition from tools that convert the “full web” to the “mobile web” in a tidy fashion and from smartphones with growing capabilities.
- SkyFire now open to the public.
Assuming low, mid-range handsets are not capable of supporting the processing demands of Skyfire, are there enough smartphone users looking for rich web content shrunk to their mobile?

Update: College Football Live is currently #24 in the top 25 free apps in iPhone App Store. Congrats Plusmo.
- Plusmo is easy widget creation, distribution and management that allowers publishers and readers alike to plug in their favorite content.
- The plusmo interface as demoed on an Nokia N95 is reminiscent of Nokia’s own WidSets widget management application/platform but is not, unlike WidSets, restricted to only Symbian devices.
- Their College Football Live application is a great showcase for the platform and the soon to be released iPhone app, which they demoed for us today, is especially slick and information rich.
Is there room for widgets in the low to mid-range handset group or will the increasing adoption of smartphones decrease their relevance?
