WOODBURY, New York, United States—Comverse Technology announced its enhanced messaging services will operate on Texas Instruments’ OMAP platform for 2.5- (2.5G) and third-generation (3G) wireless devices, a combination the companies believe will allow for more rapid deployment of applications, including mobile e-mail, multimedia messaging, instant messaging and mobile entertainment services.
“Enhanced messaging is clearly a key application area for both current and next-generation networks, and Comverse has the complete suite of multimodal messaging solutions that take full advantage of combining data, voice and rich media,” said Benny Einhorn, chief marketing officer for Comverse. “We believe TI’s OMAP platform helps to drive audio, voice and video content for multimedia-rich messaging services for 2.5G and 3G wireless devices. Collaborating with TI will aid consumers, network operators and handset vendors in benefiting from the tightest integration of end-to-end solutions.”
Comverse plans to demonstrate its mobile multimedia e-mail at its stand at the 3GSM show as well as on the OMAP platform at TI’s Developers Village booth.
