Feb 18, 2003 (Internet.com via COMTEX) -- Finnish wireless phone and networking giant Nokia has made several announcements from the 3GSM World Congress in Cannes, France, among them partnerships with IBM, Sun Microsystems and Texas Instruments.
The Nokia-Sun pact focuses on digital content delivery for wireless applications. Sun will resell Nokia's delivery server, which establishes rules for downloads, fetches data from storage systems and delivers it to mobile phones.
"There is a strong demand from both operators and corporate customers for mobile content downloading solutions . . . based on common and open industry standards," said Timo Poikolainen, a Nokia vice president.
With Big Blue, Nokia is establishing standards-based offerings to help enterprises make better use of their wireless IT investments. Again, the initiative builds upon existing infrastructure, in this case, IBM's e-business framework.
Products demonstrated by the companies provided the ability to read and send e-mail, synchronize calendar and address books and access back-end sales force automation applications through a browser on a Nokia terminal.
"Customers can look forward to maximizing the return on their IT investments by extending their e-infrastructure to this security-rich wireless solution running IBM software on Nokia business terminal platforms," said Adel Al-Saleh, an IBM general manager.
Finally, Nokia and semiconductor maker Texas Instruments demonstrated a prototype of a development kit for Nokia's Series 60 smart phone platform, which features a color screen, a keypad and other components.
"Combining technologies will speed the introduction of 2.5G and 3G Smart Phones," said Alain Mutricy, a TI vice president. "The high-performance and the low power consumption of the complete system solutions will also enable application developers to fully exploit the possibilities offered by 2.5 and 3G services."
In a related announcement, Nokia launched the Series 60 Product Creation Community designed to accelerate the development and acceptance of standards-based smart phones. TI becomes the group's first semiconductor member.
