Minimo browser 0.015 released for Pocket PC
The Mozilla Foundation has released a new version of the Minimo browser for Pocket PCs running the Gecko rendering engine. This is the first version that works on Dell Axim X50v (full-VGA) devices. The Minimo browser is not a light version of Firefox, but a completely new browser based on the Mozilla codebase, much like Firefox was when it was started.
It's exciting to see alternatives to IE being released for Pocket PCs. While Minimo still has some issues, it appears to do a more faithful job rendering many sites than Pocket IE does.

Are you kidding? Look how it screwed up the Google logo!

"...works on Dell Axim X50v..." Not exactly. Finally got it to install, no earlier versions would (problem with the way the Dell handles memory or something).
It worked OK on a few sites, but could not get to the login page for Google, any Google login page. So it is pretty much useless to me. Too bad, it looked promising.

I think the problem is not just with google sites, but is a bug in using Minimo and Windoes Mobile 2003 to access any page that requires SSL. According to the following Minimo Bug report, there are no problems with using it on Windows Mobile 5.0:
