Read the News Release here (https://www.a600gs.com/news/News_Release_AmiBrowser.pdf)

Cardiff, 6th August 2025

After many user requests, a new modern web browser has been developed by Amiga Kit. This new browser runs on AmiBench (https://wiki.amiga.org/amibench) and offers the most advanced Classic browsing experience to date.

AmiBrowser is an HTML 5 capable web browser built for 68K with Zune/MUI. It uses ARM libraries to power the native rendering of the web pages.

Matthew Leaman, Managing Director of AmigaKit Ltd remarked: “We are pleased that after many weeks of development work we can shortly offer this ground breaking application for the A600 GS and the A1200 NG user base. This has been the most requested application and we are excited to continue our commitment to delivering regular product updates.”

The A600 GS and the A1200 NG computer systems are now available to purchase from AmigaKit.com

Additional Information about the A600 GS and the A1200 NG can be found on these websites:

Eagerly awaiting the release for this. Are there any other updates being rolled out with the next release?

Out of interest, what's that browser based on, is it an AROS bit of kit?

As this is 6 weeks of intense development, there hasn’t been any time for other updates.  This project was large enough.

Makes sense! I guess there's a to-do list of sorts for those smaller improvements?

Any plans to do a PiStorm/Pi version? Possible to sell as a stand alone product perhaps?
Something I would be definitely be interested in purchasing if it came to market.
