Default MultiIE 3.1 Includes Windows Mobile 2003 SE Support

http://www.multiie.com/

"The multi-award winning MultiIE gives you the ultimate experience in web browsing on your Pocket PC - all without changing your browser. Using it's simple, but powerful features you will forget the frustrations you have with web surfing on a small device."



Features new to 3.1 include:
� Support for WM2003 Second Edition (incl. VGA)
� Better performance under WM2003
� Default open link action can be set to be either open, open in new window or open in new background window
� Windows tab toolbar height can now be changed to make it slim-line and more subtle
� Scrolling can be changed between page by page, line by line or between links
� Scrolling options in context menu
� Updated for new Skweezer 2.0

You can buy it at Handango for $17.95 or download a 14 day trial version. Pocket PC 2000-2003 SE is supported.

A great piece of software gets even better.

Now all I need is a WM2003 SE device to take advantage of it.....

huh....reading over the specs this is a very nice peice of software. I would still rather have FireFox ported over to the Pocket PC though. Nothing beats a full blown browser vs. an addin. :?

I've looked all over for any word on whether there is an upgrade price for those of us who are existing MultiIE users. Can't find anything however. Does anyone know?

Edit: Oops, I spoke too soon (having done my search when I first heard of the release). The web site has now been updated to include the good news!

I have been waiting nearly a year for a beta promised to me by the author that would allow me a fit to screen functionality, like PiePlus does. Still nothing, and not in this release either. I have Netfront installed just for that feature alone.

What do you mean? The single column view which is available in WM2003SE?

Or the use of Skweezer... which MultiIE supports...

I agree. firefox would be more preferable just for better VGA support on SE.

It's a little bit bigger of a browser, though. People are working on a port -- but it's not all that trivial...

I downloaded this a while ago. The "open in" item being always on the menu is a bit irritating imho as I generally just tap on a link and have it open, but the adjustable tab height is a definite plus. I didn't use tabs before because I found that they took up too much vertical space.
