Gemalto & Mobile Distillery introduce next generation mobile applications for Multimedia SIM[February 8th 2007] Mobile Distillery, a specialist Java mobile porting software company, has announced that it has entered into a partnership with Gemalto to solve the issue of porting capabilities for High Quality/High Res ‘next gen’ mobile applications developed for Gemalto’s Multimedia SIM High Capacity Memory SIM card. A first prototype of Mobile Distillery’s Celsius UnLimitedJARsize architecture will be shown at 3GSM 2007 Barcelona. While Gemalto’s Multimedia SIM enables larger, richer and high quality applications to be easily distributed, there is a need for these applications to run from one device to another as the user moves his SIM to new handsets. To date however the migration of the application to a new device has only been achieved by OTA download, which restricts the richness of the application to a size less than 1MB, due to OTA capacity. Mobile Distillery’s innovative Celsius UnLimitedJARsize architecture solves the problem of portability of very high quality applications distributed with the Multimedia SIM. The result is that operators, developers (and end-users) will benefit from portable next gen applications which provide a far better user-experience across hundreds of handsets. “We are very pleased to partner with Gemalto to enable ‘next gen’ mobile applications, which give operators access to a new range of customized applications that take advantage of close to ‘unlimited’ rich media resources and solve the OTA limitations” says Vincent Berge, Co-Founder & General Manager, Mobile Distillery. With no extra effort, mobile applications based on the Celsius middleware are able to run, not only on 550 handsets in Europe-US or Canada, but also in a High Quality Rich Media (graphics, music and data) version for Multimedia SIM architecture. Eric Lemarechal, co-founder and CEO, Mobile Distillery, commented: "Mobile developers can focus their creativity on applications rather than spending time, and money, on porting. Celsius makes the process effortless even for hi- resolution applications. Our partnership with Gemalto paves new ways for developers and operators to work together on distribution of applications and is a clear indication that our solutions are becoming integral to the development - deployment cycle." www.gemalto.com |
