| 26th March - Software giant IBM
said this week that it has introduced a version of its Lotus Expeditor platform
for mobile phones. Based on the Eclipse embedded Rich Client Platform (eRCP)
application model, which allows applications to span desktop and mobile environments,
version 6.1.2 of Lotus Expeditor enables mobile application developers to create
applications and services that combine information from different sources. US
carrier Sprint is one of the first to sign up for the platform, providing the
application developer community with a beta version of a new software platform
named Titan. The platform allows developers to move business applications using
the Eclipse development framework from the desktop to most Windows Mobile 6 smartphones
from Sprint. "People want to be productive anywhere, anytime,"
said Alistair Rennie, vice president of development at IBM Lotus Software. "IBM
Lotus Expeditor enables faster delivery of a new generation of Web 2.0 applications
to mobile phones. Already supporting Lotus Notes and Lotus Sametime, Expeditor
has a proven track record as a platform for innovative applications." Back
