Browser will power mobile device users; optimized for smartphones and wireless mobile.
PalmSource, the provider
of Palm OS, powering next generation mobile devices and smartphones has released
PalmSource Web Browser 3.0. The company says the browser will give its
users a richer browsing experience, along with new intuitive-based navigational
abilities.
With the PalmSource Web Browser 3.0, licensees and mobile operators can
update the default home page, pre-provision bookmarks, customize settings
specific to each operator's service and add navigation functions tailored to
different mobile devices.
PalmSource Web Browser 3.0 is designed to support the latest W3C standard
specifications including WAP 2.0, HTML and XHTML, enabling mobile device users
to browse operator portals or traditional Web content. Smartphone and smart
mobile device users with wireless connectivity can browse Web and WAP pages to
shop, download games and music, watch and listen to news, connect to corporate
intranets and access e-mail. PalmSource Web Browser 3.0 is also designed to
support optional proxy settings for use in environments that require a proxy
server.
"PalmSource Web Browser 3.0 provides one of the most efficient means of
gathering and displaying information on the smaller screens typical of today's
smart mobile devices," said Charlie Tritschler, vice president of product
marketing at PalmSource. "We believe that with support for proxy servers and
secure transport protocols, PalmSource Web Browser 3.0 is ready to handle
enterprise data securely and efficiently."
