Default NetFront v3.3 Technical Preview Available

http://nfppc.access.co.jp/about_v33.html



A NetFront technical preview utilising the v3.3 engine has just surfaced. All signs point toward there being full VGA support, so if anyone gets round to testing it, feel free to post your findings here.

It works well with proper VGA support. Unfortuanately I do not understand Japanese, and the font is all squares in any case, but having used netfront 3.1 before I know the menu structure, and can use some of the facilites. I look forward to the English release and hope the release is not very much delayed.

And hopefully it won't cost another $30 for an upgrade. :roll:

Yes, i'll be most annoyed if I have to pay to go from 3.2 to 3.3 if this comes out soon...

Agreed... 3.2 was a waste of money for me -- 3.1 was working "well enough" -- I expected more from the 3.2 upgrade...

I am anxiously waiting for Opera for the Pocket PC. Although I fail to see the advantages on the desktop over Firefox, I think if the low overhead can carry over to the handheld, it will be great.

Now that's what I'm talking about (whatever it says):

■ VGA液晶対応
Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition software for Pocket PCにおいて、VGA液晶での表示に正式対応。

As long as I see the 3 letter Veee Geee Ayyy. That's all I need to know. Anxiously awaiting... 0X

I'd love to see some of these apps begin to support WM 5.0 and its one handed smartphone-style navigation. Wonder if Netfront is going to get on board.

No. As far as I'm aware, it was a feature introduced in the v3.3 engine.
