Dolphin Browser Beta has working Flash

Tue, Apr 19 2011 08:08 | Communication | Permalink

I downloaded the new Dolphin Browser beta today and although it has some orientation issues during set up (it wants to be held like a phone/portrait) it seems to be working well. This is my favorite browser on my Droid X for a number of reasons, color theming, a massive amount of plugins being the greatest attraction for myself. Yes, there are a few quirks in the beta but so far so good. We have a working Flash, no lag, and the ability to close Facebook chat windows in the browser.

So if you have a Xoom tablet you may want to give the beta a go.

For those totally not sold on the Amazon App Store yet, here is another incentive. Amazon gives away one application that you usually would have to pay for FREE everyday. Since the price is right you may want to swing over everyday and check to see what it is.

FireFox 4.0 for Android

Tue, Mar 22 2011 08:12 | Communication | Permalink

In addition to the Opera browser, Fire Fox 4.0 was released today and it runs well on the Xoom. Unfortunately, like Opera, I cannot seem to enable Flash. If anyone could clue me in I would appreciate it. It looks like it does have the option to Sync with your Desktop just like Chrome.

Opera Browser for Xoom

Tue, Mar 22 2011 04:55 | Communication | Permalink

Looks like an optimized version of the Opera browser was released for the Xoom. Much more configurable than the default browser and not force closing on me like the Dolphin Browser would. This browser also seems to render pages a LOT faster than the default browser. Unfortunately I cannot find a way to make Flash work nor a setting to switch the UA sting to “Desktop” instead of “Mobile”. Opera looks like it has lots of potential and is polished, very promising. You may want to check it out for yourself.
