Tuesday July 20, 2004 Today I tried Opear Web Browser on my cell phone.
Here's a screenshot of www.sun.com, it's pretty good.
The picture on the page was shrunk to fit mobile's screen.
Wish someday I can try our Mozilla on it.

Last month, Macromedia announced Flash Lite 1.1, as the Macromedia Flash profile specifically developed for mobile phones.
It supports SVG-T(Scalable Vector Graphics-Tiny) playback, MP3, ActionScript and network connectivity.
Like Flash Player on the web, in time, Macromedia expect Flash Lite to be ubiquitous in the mobile phone industry. They're going to support Symbian, Palm, Smartphone and BREW.
Before Flash Lite 1.1, Macromedia released Flash player 6 for PocketPC and some certain phones in Japan.
But, I didn't see any executable for Symbian yet. I wish it will come out soon. Somebody said the program's size is about 300K.
As you know, Macromedia's Flash format is one of the most common and most widely used formats for enhancing websites with multimedia. I guess it's going to be a competitor of J2ME very soon. It's really simple and powerful. Maybe you'll see some mobile games based on Flash Lite in the future.
One satirical announcement which Macromedia threw out 3 years ago, "Flash headed for Symbian".
Wish I can try it before the retirement of my cell phone.
