Esmertec has signed an agreement for the supply of its Jbed ME technology to Cellon, the world's largest independent design house for wireless terminals and modules.

Esmertec has signed an agreement for the supply of its Jbed ME technology to Cellon, the world's largest independent design house for wireless terminals and modules.

The agreement establishes the framework for Java deployment in millions of wireless handsets.

Cellon plans to incorporate esmertec's JVM on a GSM/GPRS wireless platform which will be commercially available by the middle of this year, as a first step to deploying Java technology across its handset range during 2003.

Cellon's Jbed ME implementation will also incorporate associated Java APIs including CLDC 1.0, MIDP 2.0 and wireless messaging.

"As an independent design house, Cellon is committed to providing our customers with access to the full range of leading wireless technologies.

Our agreement with Esmertec is an important step in that commitment", said Horst Fenske, Senior Vice-President, Engineering at Cellon.

"Like Cellon, Esmertec understands the value of leading with technology, and we're pleased to lay the framework for ongoing collaboration".

Jbed ME is an order of magnitude faster than standard J2ME implementations because it fully compiles Java bytecode into optimised machine code on the device itself.

MIDP 2.0 is a new standard for mobile information devices that delivers greater functionality and better support for gaming, audio applications and security.

"We are delighted with this significant order", commented Esmertec CEO, Alain Blancquart.

"It gets the Jbed technology into industry-leading mobile phones used by millions of people, and is a strong endorsement of our technology by a major player with strong experience in a broad range of markets worldwide".
