Rim should first take care of the small things that it can do to make the current browser better before tackling such a huge undertaking. I mean don't get me wrong, I live and die by my bold, but the browser is lacking at best. I have to give it to RIM for being that optimistic that it will get it right within a year!!! Lets hope so for their sake. I agree. Rim should first take care of the small things that it can do to make the current browser better before tackling such a huge undertaking.

Also while Skyfire is nice, it has it's own drawbacks. i.e. fullscreen flash in Skyfire is a problem. Because Skyfire doesn't actually handle the flash content on the client side, "fullscreen" assumes the resolution of the server. On Nokias, you can click on a flash vid to auto scale it to full screen. Why? Because it's not being handled by a server... That’s a different type of browser though.

RIM has proxy servers, as Skyfire does, where the rendering takes place before being streamed to the device. Should be able to use the same concept.

It can actually detract from the browsing experience heavily in a lot of cases, rather than adding to it.

They provided updates only twice in the life of the device, and the updates don't fix half the bugs and don't make the system more user friendly. I'm waiting for a Firefox or a Chrome to replace my Blackberry browser. I think I’m just sick and tired of operating system and hardware manufacturers trying to provide browsers.

And the required HSPA/LTE/WiMax networks needed aren't going to be anywhere close to widely deployed. I call BS on BG's source. There is far more RIM should focus on than flash garbage.
