What’s new in this 1.0 update?
* Reduced Memory footprint. We reduced the memory footprint of Skyfire for both Symbian and Windows Mobile devices. This should help folks reporting issues on memory constrained devices.

Fixes in this release
* History is presented in the proper order.
* Cookies in the UK data center are handled more reliably.
* Sharing links via SMS are handled more reliably.
* Reconnect correctly loads the last page in history plus we’ve improved reliability.
* Site specific issues have been resolved for Rooftopcommedy.com and thefind.com.
* Zoom buttons behave properly and disappear after a couple of seconds.
* Default browser setting works more consistently.
* Text entry on Symbian has been improved with one caveat below.

Known issues in this release
* Multi-line text entry on Symbian: Skyfire might exit the text entry mode when the user is choosing a word from the predictive text list. Plus, using the down key might NOT get you out of text entry mode. If this happens, use enter or center OK. Issues 7149 & 7112
* Superbar state on Symbian: Under some circumstances, exiting the Superbar via the ‘cancel’ option will navigate to the previous page. Issue 7158
* Change connection on Symbian: Choosing the search WLAN option might not change the WLAN connection. Issue 6633.
* Samsung Jack (AT&T): Because of a security policy on this device, it will not allow uninstall of Skyfire if there is not SIM card in the phone. Simply insert a SIM card.
