has anyone tried the Iris Browser?
Hi,
While browsing on Wikipedia to find infos about mobile browsers and their capabilities, I found Iris Browser, a WebKit-based mobile browser that could work on the M8, since the M8 is windows CE6 based. A very interresting thing about Iris is that it is the only browser to successfully pass the Acid3 test.
