Click to ZoomThe new Minimo is here. That would be the latest version of the Mozilla open source browser for handhelds. It's Version 013, and it works on smartphones and PDS that are running Windows Mobile.

Building on the success of its larger-screen cousins, it offers tabs for multiple open pages and a left-side screen bar with direct links to Google, RSS sites, and other popular Web destinations. A new interface completes the facelift, which is available for free download at the Mozilla website.

Some industry observers have commented that the offering won't make much of an impact in terms of dollars and cents because the number of people running devices powered by Windows Mobile is still rather small. Given the marketing muscle of Microsoft, however, that figure seems likely to rise. The Minimo update is, however, the next step in graduation from PC Web access to full-scale mobile Web access.
