Jun 13, 2005 First a night at the Opera, now a day on Safari. Nokia today said it was developing a new mobile phone web browser based on Apple's Mac OS X application, Safari. Nokia is using Safari's open source components, which Apple once again touted last week at its Worldwide Developers Conference. To be fair, Nokia owes as much to the KDE open source. Also another main reason for no mobile browser development for any Windows mobile OS's in the last years was following the Windows Phone 7 announcement and Microsoft's decision not to release a native development kit, as with Android and other systems, development for Windows Mobile was put on hold as was mentioned here. Firefox Browser for Mobile blocks over 2000 trackers by default, giving you the privacy you deserve and the speed you need in a private mobile browser. Current owners of those phones 'will be encouraged to upgrade' from Xpress - Nokia's home-grown browser that uses Mozilla's 'Gecko' engine - to Opera Mini. New phones will come with Opera Mini. 1 UC Browser: UC Browser is the most popular browser for Windows Phone, and they release quite a lot of regular updates to the browser. It comes with a host of features including speed dial, Wi-fi downloading, save to SD card, Bluetooth file sharing and more in a functional interface.

GLOBAL – Getting online fast, and affordably, is crucial for Internet users everywhere. Now that experience is about to get even faster and easier with an update for all existing Nokia Browser users, covering phones across the Nokia Asha range and Series 40 devices.

We know Nokia Browser is often the first, and main, way of accessing the Internet for millions of you in dynamic fast-growing parts of the world. Since the Browser launched last year you’ve been able to access all the information you need, without the headache of worrying about your data bill.

Nokia Browser condenses data by up to 90%. That makes loading web sites faster, and cheaper – in fact, our cloud-accelerated browsing makes loading web sites up to three times faster. If you’re on a pay-per-use contract you’ll enjoy cheaper browsing, or if you’re on an operator data plan you’ll be able to do more web surfing without exceeding your monthly usage limits.

Nokia Browser 2.0 makes it even easier to share content across social media: You can post any page URL via Facebook or Twitter from within the browser, including a comment directly from the options menu. If you’re in China, you’ll be able to do the same for Sina Weibo and RenRen.

Nokia Series 40 users have downloaded more than 35 million Web Apps in total, with the most-downloaded app – ‘Free Wi-Fi Locator’ – having been downloaded more than 2 million times alone.

The update supports all forms of Nokia Series 40: Touch, QWERTY and Non-Touch, including the Nokia Asha range, as well as popular devices such as the Nokia C3-00, Nokia C2-03 and Nokia X3-02. The update will be pre-loaded on some current and all future Nokia Series 40 devices, while for existing users the update arrives as a free, optional over-the-air download.
