Steel, the new Android browser

I had to share this with all of you G1 lovers out there. Steel is a new browser being put out by Kolbysoft.com and it is probably one of the slickest mobile browsers I have seen.  For starters, here are a few of the great features that Steel offers to G1 users:

  • Full screen support - This includes getting rid of the notification bar, hiding the address bar and the navigational buttons while browsing the web.

  • On-screen keyboard - The on-screen keyboard included in Steel is quick, multi directional and offers a "vibrate on touch" feature to let you know that you've hit a key.  Sure, it's not as great as the iPhone keyboard yet, but it's a fantastic start.

  • Landscape/Portrait mode - By turning the screen sideways, the browser seamlessly flips the web site from portrait to landscape and back again.  This can allow for a much larger viewing area as well as an easier read.

  • Changable Agents - Trying to browse an iPhone only website and it just won't let you?  Now you can choose the agent that is sent to the web.  Switch between Android, a deaktop browser and iPhone.


These are just some of the great features that Steel currently offers and it's only at version 0.0.5 as I write this.  Only great things can come of this application.  Go ahead and search the Market for "Steel" and you'll be up and running in no time.  Happy browsing!
