Digia announces first full finger touch web browser for UIQ platform phones
Digia Plc has created a first fully finger touch controllable web browser for UIQ based mobile phones. Designed for UIQ 3 and Symbian OS the Digia @Web provides user oriented mobile browsing experience. Browser is based on the open-source webkit browser engine ported to UIQ by Digia, and a whole new browser UI that gives powerful and intuitive access to true web content. Mobile browsing is gaining huge popularity due to flat rate 3G data access and possibility to use WLAN connections.
Jari-Pekka Heikkilä, VP Smartphone from Digia says: "We see internet content becoming more and more important for users of mobile phones, and browser as the single most important application in the truly converged devices. By creating the new browser we want to provide the users of UIQ based mobile phones the opportunity to see the web as it has been intended."
