Ah technology....AND sailing

I love it when two wonder things come together...this isn't new, but I had to express my joy.

Our crew regularly uses Ferry Weather (http://i90.atmos.washington.edu/ferry/Ferryjs/mainframe1.htm) which provides great wind speed and direction updates...This never rendered well in mobile IE and even worse in Opera or the native BB Browser.

BUT...now the Beta Skyfire browser allows us to view this perfectly!!

BTW...I'm currently using my BlackBerry Curve.

The great thing about using your BlackBerry while sailing is if it falls overboard you won't miss it :-)

Totally agree...I must admit that I'm a WM fanatic. The iPhone was great while I was using it, but I missed the enterprise integration.
