I have been playing with Netfront 3.01 for Series 60 this
morning. I wonder if this is essentially the same browser
as which is used in i-mode handsets? If not how does
it differ?
Initial impression is quite positive. Netfront is much
lighter than opera. Opera which is much bigger hogs almost all
memory of my 3650 phone. Netfront does not handle pages _not_
designed for mobile screen as well as Opera, but you should
have separate pages for mobiles anyway.
Biggest downside on Netfront is that it does not seem
to support Accept-Encoding header / sending content
gzipped.
