| Qtopia Chosen as the Preferred Platform for Skype Certified Phones Trolltech announces that Skype has chosen Trolltech's Qtopia as the preferred platform for connecting the Skype user interface to the operating system in Skype Certified WiFi handsets and a variety of other devices that deliver a Skype experience. Skype works with handset manufacturers who wish to add Skype capabilities to their devices. As this business expands, it becomes increasingly important that handsets share the same application platform. The Qtopia platform reduces the time-to-market for Skype devices while ensuring that handsets can be updated easily. Skype and Trolltech have been partners ever since Skype used Trolltech's flagship product, Qt, to create its Skype for Linux desktop offering. The software allowed people to make free calls and exchange instant messages with other Skype users worldwide. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
