Skyfire 1.0 web browser brings Hulu, full web experience to Windows Mobile
The browser has been in beta for about a year and a half, but today the Skyfire team released Skyfire 1.0 to the public.

Skyfire includes tools for keeping up with your friends on social networks including Facebook and Twitter. There's also an option to share any web page with your friends either via SMS or by posting a link to sites like Facebook.
