Published by Asri al-Baker at 3:22 UTC, June 20th 2008
This new Webkit-based internet browser for UIQ 3 is now available for download from the developer's official web site (free registration required). Digia @Web is bringing a new level of web experience to UIQ 3 as the first finger-optimised web-browser for the platform. More information and screenshots after the break.

With the release of the first beta, Digia also made available the support page for @Web which contains useful information about the application. The @Web conformance report is a test comparison table comparing @Web, Opera 8.65 (default UIQ 3 browser) and S60 Browser. @Web user guide is the user guide for the application which explains how to use it (e.g. accessing zoom and settings functions), and last but not least, they made available the @Web FAQ in which they explain the decision to use Webkit instead of Gecko (Firefox rendering engine). Good stuff to read.
We will publish our initial thoughts about this interesting web-browser in the coming days. Stay tuned!
