2009-05-21 19:24 1855

BEIJING, May 21 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 2 tests ended last month with thousands of users participating and contributing some very valuable suggestions and feedback. Now we are ready to test Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3.

Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3 has fixed more than 50 bugs found in Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 2 and added some features to make it more stable than the previous version.

Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3 will be distributed to users only through the Maxthon Passport site and via e-mail invitations. There is no other official means of distributing Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3 to users. Maxthon registered users who want to participate, can download Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3 from the Maxthon Passport site or click here http://dl.maxthon.cn/mx3/mx3.0.0.112.exe . Users who received an invitation for Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 2 will find a link to Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 3 in your e-mail inbox.

As mentioned previously, Maxthon 3.0 is not as complete as Maxthon 2.x. It only has the most basic features and may not meet your needs for daily use. You may find it buggy and should not be used for critical tasks. But, there are still many Maxthon fans who are willing to help us test Maxthon 3.0 and that's a great way to collect feedback and make improvements. For this evaluation, we are inviting users who we feel might be willing to evaluate Maxthon 3.0 Dual Mode technology in it's early stages of development.
