[Chinese]-[介紹] Skyfire 手機瀏覽器

之前看過很多篇文章在討論Skyfire browser,今天AAS又出了一篇文章討論它.  呵呵,選日不如撞日,今天就來給他試試看吧!

安裝完試用了幾分鐘,感覺是個很有潛力的產品,它可以提供您類似於PC的使用經驗. 如果您用的手機是智慧型手機例如Symbian或是Windows Mobile,建議大家都去安裝使用.  等這個軟體開發完成,應該是可以取代您目前手機上笨笨的瀏覽器.

行動網(Walled Garden Mobile Portal),應該是岌岌可危了.

您可以使用手機上的瀏覽器拜訪這個網址 http://get.skyfire.com,它的程式會自動判別手機型號,您確定後按下載按鈕即可.

AAS網站上有發表過好幾篇文章介紹這個瀏覽器,最近一篇文章(9th Dec, 2008)是由Steven Litchfield發表的,您有興趣的話可以點擊這點.

AAS上的文章一向不錯,所以在此我就不班門弄斧了. :) 就貼一些螢幕截圖給大家參考看看.

程式開啟畫面,告知您仍然是測試版.

瀏覽器的預設首頁.
您注意到了嗎? 是不是看起來跟一般PC上的Portal首頁一樣,這就是厲害的地方啦,它可以提供您類似於PC上的瀏覽使用經驗,這軟體應該是我印象中目前為止最接近的.

您可以看看每天新聞頭條.

其他語言版本的Portal畫面也沒問題,秀一下我常上的中文新聞網站.
當然您的手機上面要安裝有亞洲語言(例如中文)等字型才能正確顯示啦.

看看NGN LIVE Web 2.0 Portal,一樣是沒問題啦. :)

還可以zoom in一下,注意看......文章.

可以看影片嗎! 來試試YouTube吧!

有圖有真相.

影片可以直接在瀏覽器裡面播放,不用跳到外掛程式去了,感覺起來還蠻順的,不知道他們怎麼做到的.


其他一些關於使用軟體上的T&C以及軟體支援的手機型號等問題,可以在 http://www.skyfire.com/about/beta 此獲得解答.

試用後您會愛上它!

Mobile VoIP and IM : Fring

The next thing I am going to discuss is VoIP. Apparently there are lots of options available to you. Skype is very popular. Unfortunately it’s mainly to be used on your PC. On your mobile phone, I recommend to use Fring. One single client can connect to Skype, MSN, Yahoo, AOL and even SIP. You can chat with your friends no matter what kind of IM they use. And the best part is, you can even buy a dial in number for either your Skype and or SIP account, then the Fring software can be used as a 2-way communication tool.
I have found that its voice call quality is very good most of time providing both parties in call conversation are not traveling in high speed both under 3G mobile network's coverage.

Features highlight of the Fring software are

• A mobile client to do IM and VoIP
• Support Skype, MSN, Yahoo, AOL and SIP
• Can do traditional pstn/mobile call out via either Skype or SIP
• Native client is compatible to Nokia Symbian, Window Mobiles
• Fring Lite (Java client) was introduced recently to support mass market feature phones

This is the second software I will recommend you to be on your mobile device.

Panorama photo taken by Samsung INNOV8 is AMAZING

The photo taken by Samsung INNOV8's 8MP camera is amazing! I must say that it is the beast in terms of features and quality among all 5MP plus and above camera handsets I have used so far. Okay, this may be a bit subjective as I am not an expert in photo shooting I must admit it. :)

To prove my point. You may say to see is to believe. Let's take a look at following two photos taken last week. Amazing, isn't it. And the best part of it is, to take a panorama photo like this is full automatic. Just point your camera and press the button one time to begin the shooting procedure. After finish it, the software will do the magic for you.


Samsung, what a great job done!

Integrated (Push) Email client : Nokia Email Service

Nokia is now shifting focus of the company itself from a pure handset manufacturing company toward a service and software solution provider. Personally I think this is a smart move because it can lock in the end users and make the cost too high for them to change brand of handsets used.
The very first software from their offering is no doubt a dedicated email client. Mail for Exchange software itself has been a very successful story to Nokia. Nokia has now decided to offer this Mail for Exchange software to all of their Symbian hand phones. In addition to that, they take one more step further to offer a separate email client for end consumers which allow them to use it to manage up to 6 email accounts of their own all via the new Nokia email client.

Features of the Nokia Email Client are

1. A Mobile email client in your Nokia devices
2. Support POP3 / IMAP protocol
3. To View, respond, forward, compose and delete emails
4. To Manage your email inbox, outbox, drafts, and sent folders
5. Currently compatible to Nokia Symbian S60 3.0 and 3.1 devices
