Mobile Internet consultancy, AU-System UK, and mobile business software and solutions provider Condat AG, Germany, has signed a memorandum of understanding to improve the global availability of wireless devices that are capable of exploiting 2.5G mobile Internet services.
Condat and AU-System have agreed upon to cooperate in order to offer handset and PDA manufacturers a complete software solution for the inner workings of devices able to browse the Internet at improved speeds and receive the first generation of 'always-on' GPRS data services.
The devices will combine Condat's GPRS-enabled GSM protocol stack with the AUS WAP browser, which includes support for new bearers like Bluetooth, GPRS and 3G networks.
The two companies are confident that manufacturers will view their offering as a fast-track way of providing telecommunications network operators with the devices they need to get revenue-generating 2.5G services up and running quickly.
Stefan Fleron, CEO, AU-System UK, comments: "Telecommunications network operators desperately need GPRS devices to get into the market fast so they can generate revenues from the obvious improvements that 2.5G brings to mobile. With their 'always-on' capability, these devices will offer a major improvement over the first incarnation of WAP. They will be the first to function as true extensions of office business tools."
