Nokia & Sony Ericsson To Align Developer Tools For Symbian Os Smartphones

Nokia and Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications have agreed

to further strengthen the momentum behind Symbian OS by

aligning tools for the UIQ and Series 60 terminal software platforms

and by creating an application certification program. This will

substantially assist developers to develop, certify and deploy

applications for Symbian OS phones, thereby accelerating availability

of new applications for the new generation of multimedia mobile

phones based on Symbian OS.

This collaboration between Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Symbian will make

it possible for developers to use a unified tool set to develop Symbian

OS applications for products using both UIQ and Series 60 terminal

software platforms. Developers will also benefit from easier verification

processes and faster time to market.
