Skyfire Beta - now for everyone

yesterday evening the skyfire browser released a public beta
now anyone can download it by registering on the site
http://www.skyfire.com
When registering, you need to specify a mobile phone in the United States, but I managed a random set of numbers (my apologies to those who received SMS in the states - it seems you have not been there overnight =)
version available for Windows Mobile 5 and 6 and for Symbian S60
I had the opportunity to drive a little Skyfire on the HTC P4350

by the way navigation is arranged - similar to Opera Mini 4 and Opera Mobile 9 beta, but
(a) Skyfire understands flash - in particular the video on YouTube
(b) being a native application - it is not isolated from the rest of the system as Opera Mini
(c) he doesn’t complain about memory shortage like Opera Mobile 9
(d) he understands ajax sites
(e) it seemed to me that he was faster (did not conduct any special tests)

generally recommend
')
But Fenec is still expected from Mozilla soon - so there will be plenty to choose from.

disclaimer: I have no connection with the Skyfire developers

UPDATE: from the comments here and in LJ drew the following disadvantages:
(a) beta does not support high resolution (VGA) screens
(b) unlike Opera Mini, Skyfire does not compress traffic
(c) does not support WM2003SE devices
