Hi,
As I was working with wireless Internet websites, I realized that without
having accurate, up-to-date, and comprehensive profile information on mobile
devices, mobile browsers, gateways, and wireless networks, I couldn't design
a user-friendly site that could optimally support myriads of mobile devices
used by my customers. Industry standards such as CC/PP and XHTML Basic are
a good start but they haven't eliminated the need for this profile
information.
Per Gartner Group, "by 2004, companies will have to support a minimum of 50
different mobile device profiles and 10 different wireless network
interfaces at once." Whether I use a transcoder product such as IBM
WebSphere Transcoder Publisher or my own custom solution, having the profile
information is a must.
Well, I have developed a product that has made my life easier, which will
allow me to focus on development and not worry about gathering and
maintaining the profile information that changes constantly. Why don't you
also give it a try and let me know what you think about the product? It is
available for free at: http://www.arkdom.com/.
