Peek Pronto does email
Posted by cmp101 in Miscellaneous on April 3rd, 2009

The Peek Pronto does one thing - email. It’s about $80 plus $20 monthly for the T-Mobile service. That’s not the best deal but you don’t need a contract to use it so it might fit some people’s needs.

Firefox Mobile released as beta
Posted by cmp101 in Miscellaneous on March 19th, 2009

Mozilla today released its Fennec mobile browser (Firefox Mobile) in beta for the Nokia 810s. This is a very limited beta release.
Those who want to try the beta without a Nokia N810 can do so on a PC. Fennec was built on Javascript so it will run on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
A Mozilla contributor said about the beta:
“On the feature front, we’ve enabled plugins so you can now watch videos on your favorite sites, and we’ve got in our first pass at improved bookmark management and support for bookmark folders. A lot of time was spent on infrastructure that we could use to build the rest of our app with. You’re now able to scroll things like preferences and the new bookmarks list. One of our main focuses for the next milestone will be on polishing the user interface areas like the extension manager will get a face lift and we’ll start working more on some of the usability issues people have reported. ”
