Upcoming Skyfire Browser for iPad Demoed [Video]

The upcoming Skyfire browser for the iPad has been demoed in anticipation of its release.

Skyfire uses cloud-computing technology that translates Flash video on the fly from millions of web sites into HTML5 formats, and supports iOS devices via Apple's HTTP live streaming standard.


Wired notes The iPad version of Skyfire adds the ability to view your Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader feeds - though I'm not sure why you'd want to. As I've argued before, most people are going to download this app to watch naked people do naughty things to each other, because otherwise there isn't much other compelling video out there that's still encoded in Flash.
