While watching Flash content on Skyfire, I’ve noticed significant synchronization issues between audio and video. While I expect such hiccups from a beta product, what steps are you taking to minimize problems like this in Skyfire v1.0?

With program storage at a premium on many Windows Mobile devices, are there any plans to optimize the Skyfire code to run in a smaller memory footprint? If so, how small would you like it to be? Thank you.

How do you plan on capturing a market that is currently controlled by Microsoft and Mozilla (90%)? Google has only had roughly 3% penetration. How much of the market do you foresee Skyfire competing for?

Skyfire’s continuous connection between the browser on my phone and your server drains my phone battery very quickly. Is that connection a fundamental part of the Skyfire architecture, or can we expect to see a future version that is gentler on batteries?

In order to comply with the spread of laws prohibiting even having your phone out while driving, have you considered making the browser itself voice controlled using the phone’s speakerphone?

On a more personal note: you must be thrilled that your product has gone international – how did you celebrate? Was there something you’d been putting off that you finally treated yourself to, or what?

Other than phones, what about devices like the Archos 5? Due to lesser resources of phones, would Skyfire work better than other browers on the popular netbooks?

With Apple emerging as the fastest and largest seller of smartphones, do you think that by not having an iPhone version of the browser you are removing yourself from a core group of users who tend to do more mobile browsing than any other mobile device users? What will you do to overcome this?

you all seem to have made quite an advanced browser for a mobile device. Do you see any advantages with possibly moving into the expanding netbook market since your software is already made to work on marginal hardware? i know some work would be required to port it but it seems like a logical step if feasible.
