Sega and Planetweb have released a slightly updated version of their 2.6 browser. It fixes some of the major bugs such as trouble with SFD moviews, frames, and text boxes. 2.6 had some issues with the DC mouse which have been fixed, and you can now surf and listen to .wav (and maybe mp3s) at the same time. It also slightly updates Dreamcall and best of all, it includes demos! And you thought the demo disc was gone! While most of the demos are older, it's great if you didn't pick up any ODCM mags. It includes demos of Speed Devils Online, 4x4 Evolution, Starlancer, full version of Sega Swirl, a movie of PSO, and a demo of The Typing of the Dead! Tying of the Dead, no mater how strange it sounds, is acually fun. If you've got a keyboard (or 2 for 2 player mode) then play it! Best of all, it's free! Quite possibly the LAST free browser, since Sega may not distrubute 3.0. Order yours today at http://newbrowser.sega.com/</div> </td> </tr></table></body>
