Minimo is an open source Internet navigator for Windows Mobile, based on the Mozilla code. It offers innovative functions: tab managements, zoom, etc.
You can start using Minimo for Windows Mobile 4.2 or 5.0 today.
The Minimo project has been focused on code-size and runtime footprint reduction, small screen usablity, and porting to small consumer devices. We hope to make Minimo the browser of choice on small devices, or machines with limited system resources; taking advantage of Mozilla's support for a broad and comprehensive set of standards and the variety of content on the web, proven security, international support, and cross platform capability.
For end users, the same browser you are used to running on your desktop and laptop will be available in a slimmed down form on your palmtop, but it will have full support for accessing the variety of content you are used to viewing.
For content developers, the same set of standards based rich content can now be extended to a number of new users accessing the web over wireless handheld devices.
If you do not have a Windows desktop, you can download the CAB installer (7.98 MB). This you simply need to copy or download to your device. Then use Start -> File Explorer on your Window CE device to locate and run the CAB installer.
