Microsoft unveils new mobile Web browser Thu Mar 29, 2:40 PM ET


REDMOND, Wash. - Microsoft Corp. has unveiled an early version of a new Web browser for mobile devices that it said will make browsing full-sized Web pages faster and easier on small smart-phone screens.

Deepfish, as the software from Microsoft's Live Labs group is called, takes a Web page intended for a desktop Web browser and turns it into a small image that fits on a mobile phone's screen. Users can zoom in on the part of the page they want to read or click on.
To date, most Web browsers for mobile phones work best with pared-down versions of existing sites, limiting mobile users' access to the Internet to a sliver of what's available to desktop Web surfers.
Microsoft said on the Live Labs Web site that the Deepfish technology is in very early stages, and "still a few releases from beta quality."
Deepfish's unveiling Wednesday followed another mobile Web browser development from Microsoft. ZenZui, a startup that used technology developed at Microsoft's research lab, on Monday showed off a visual way to store and navigate bookmarked Web pages on a mobile phone.
For now, a limited number of users with smart phones or Pocket PCs running Windows Mobile 5.0 or later can download Deepfish from the Live Labs Web site.

It's actually really cool. I have it on my MDA, works alright, but it's still in beta. Think of a N90 browser...

Yes thank you. I have two berries, a Nokia N92, and an MDA. I do have to say that a symbian(Nokia) browser rocks!
