    Even with Skyfire opening the floodgates for about a week back in August and sites around the tubes having given away bags and bags of beta keys, I’m still getting e-mails asking if there are any quick and easy ways to sneak into the beta for this remarkably cool browser.

    Though we’re not sure how long it’ll work, we’ve got a way. At a mid-CTIA press event, Skyfire was passing out little promo cards that offered an in for anybody in attendance: Just text “Skyfire” to 41411. It’ll take 10-20 minutes for a response and it’s still only open to handsets in the US, but it oughtta work for WinMo 5/6, Symbian S60 3rd edition, and a handful of popular Nokia smartphones. Let us know how it works for you.
