Here is a link to a freeware browser I found on PocketPC Freewares. (http://ppcf.mklabs.com/index.php)

Here is the main page.

It can display multiple windows. The only catch, the menus are in Japanese, but they are easy to figure out, and for those who use Winampaq, you know that it isn't a big deal.

I just downloaded it, and already have been weaned off of PIE. 8)

Does it add anything to my experience if I already have multiIE?

Is it faster or offer more features?

Thanks.

is this a type of addon to IE, or a completely separate browser? How is it better than IE (aside from multiple windows), and how does it compare to Netfront?

This program uses the IE-engine and has a nice feature to view the HTML source aswell. An english version exists aswell and it can be found here:

simzz1,
In case you haven't, I submitted this as a news item for the front page. :lol:

What does it add over PIE or MultIE/Pocket Plus? Tabbed interface, fast page rendering, only 55k install, fit to window which actually works for mobile formatted pages, and the joy of endorsing freeware.

Plus it's just plain fun to play with something new. (Did I mention that it is very fast????? :!: )

I like this program a lot. It is nice to be able to save pictures off the net with it. Something that PIE was lacking. The Tabbed browsing is a big plus too.

Is this noticeably faster than PIE? Someone mentioned it still uses the PIE engine so I would expect similar speeds.
