Link: Microsoft Labs' Deepfish: iPhone for everyone | Webware : Cool Web apps for everyone.
Microsoft is fighting back against the IPhone announcement with a real product. Deepfish is a browser alternative that uses pretty icons like the upcoming IPhone, and which works on the small screens of UMPCs and SmartPhones like the Treo. However, there is no Palm version, and the software is still in private beta. That means you can only get it to try out with an invitation. Get in line. Will Deepfish be a worthy competitor to the IPhone? Well, at least we know it exists. Of course, you have to be running Windows Mobile 5 or 6 to use it. The failure of the UMPC form factor was largely related to the uncomfortable middle ground between smart phones and laptops it was forced to occupy. I am waiting for the UMPC sized full computers, like the FlipStart. I should get one next week for review. I am salivating.
