Bitstream's BOLT Mobile Browser for mobile phones, which is designed to provide a richer PC-style Web browsing experience on small devices, was updated today.

While the new version doesn't add any significant new features, it does address several issues and is an important update that is strongly recommended for all users. Twitter use and server response times have been improved. This eliminates the problems users experienced with some web sites which caused BOLT to hang at roughly 20% on the progress bar. 

Visit the BOLT web site to download the update. There are several versions available, including a BlackBerry-specific version and an optional plug-in that makes BOLT the default browser on your BlackBerry device.
