Karşınızda Yepyeni Symbian Anna Web Tarayıcı(v7.3)
GLOBAL – The launch of
Browsing the Internet on our mobile phone is becoming an everyday occurrence and for many – especially in emerging markets – it’s often the first experience people have of surfing the Net. So it’s only right that the experience should be an easy, rewarding one.

It’s also more compatible with the emerging HTML 5 standard with a score of 111 out of 400 in an industry

The inclusion of a portrait Qwerty keyboard has been something that many users of Nokia touchscreen phones have asked for recently, and this makes typing in URLs and keywords in the address bar a lot easier. Here’s a couple of screenshots of the Qwerty portrait keyboard in action:
Once you’ve found a favourite web page, you may want to copy a link from the site onto your clipboard for using somewhere else. Long pressing on a link will open up a new menu that allows you to copy that link or to open it in a new window, like so:
Where next for the browser boffins, do you think? What are the other features you’d like added to it to make it better still? Leave a comment below, to let us know.
