Skyfire CEO Jeff Glueck, in a post on the company's blog, has announced that Skyfire will shut down its proxy-server based Skyfire 1.0 and 1.5 browsers outside of North America and Western European markets. The company will also cease all future development on the original proxy browser concept and instead turn its attention to Skyfire 2.0, which uses a WebKit browser and cloud services, instead of a mediated proxy. Glueck cited the weak mobile ad market as a reason why it would be shuttering its proxy servers, though the browser will remain available in more than a dozen countries, including the U.S., Korea and Taiwan. The Skyfire 1.x browsers, which only work with Windows Mobile and Symbian phones, will shut down on July 1. Skyfire 2.0 is now available for Android phones, and Skyfire says it will soon submit the new browser for iOS App Store approval.
