The popular third party browser BOLT has been updated to version 1.6 with some new features and enhancements to increase page loading speeds.

BOLT version 1.6 includes full socket-based connectivity which is said to increase the page rendering speed of BOLT by as much as 15 percent. The latest version also includes a new password manager, allowing usernames and passwords to be saved by the browser for easier and faster logins. Other features include:

  • Streams videos from popular video services such as YouTube.
  • Copy and paste text.
  • Uploads video and photo files directly to websites from browser.
  • Only major WebKit based cloud computing browser.

    • BOLT is available for free download at http://boltbrowser.com.

    Something on everyone’s mind as the latest BOLT version is released, is what will happen to the third party browser market once RIM releases their updated WebKit browser? Will companies like Bitstream stay far enough ahead to remain relevant?

      Honestly, theres no big different between the crrent version. I’m using 5800. I actually hope that the next version makes the scrolling at least like the opera mini 5 beta. And, the bolt browser looks a bit rude/nonsoft. Maybe thts what the engineer need do so the browser can hold such stream when entering full site. But, i still use it as my main browser.

      Bolt browser 1 thumbs up.

      Anyone else download this only to find is adds a bunch of other CRAP to your device? I found 4 ‘demo’ games added with it. Guess I’ll be deleting that as I will not support any company that installs crap beyond what you agree to.
