Comments on: New Skyfire Browser for Windows Mobile
The self-titled Skyfire browser uses a proxy rendering technology similar to that of the aforementioned Deepfish and Opera Mini, transcoding pages into a proprietary format that is then squirted to your device. Unlike those browsers, however, Skyfire brings full Flash support along with AJAX and Java.

I wonder how they do the Flash video. Have they developed some kind of WinMob plugin or are they transcoded as well?

My main issue is the whole proxy thing. It ties the browser to the well being of the company, pushes all your usage patterns into their logs and for what? The iPhone's already proven you can get good performance and functionality without it. What's the win with the proxy?
