While not strictly on topic I think this could be an interesting
opportunity for the Australian development community.

 

As some of you might already know JavaOne will be happening in San
Francisco in 2 weeks time http://java.sun.com/javaone/sf/

 

I wanted to draw your attention to an interesting company that will be
exhibiting there called www.Savaje.com <http://www.savaje.com/>  more
details here 

http://pr_sun/exhibitor_info?id=5051
<http://www28.cplan.com/pls/pr_sun/exh_sun_aux.exhibitor_info?p_conf_id=
124&p_location_id=124-1&p_exhibitor_id=5051> 

 

In summary Savaje is a brand new Java mobile phone OS that is highly
programmable and customizable it has been awarded device of the show 

http://www.savaje.com/show_device.html

 

There are a number of undisclosed hardware manufacturers who have signed
on to offer hardware and undisclosed carriers will announce their
involvement at the show.

 

Now what does this have to do with you; lots.

 

Basically at the show Savaje will be offering the first JavaOS handsets
and appropriate SDK's for developers who want to build their own Java
applications to run on these handsets.

 

You can now write an application that will run on your mobile phone and
be able to communicate over the data channel to external devices and
applications. I think with the wealth of development talent in the
Australian Java community we should be able to build some interesting
apps that not only interoperate with the Savaje handset but also operate
stand alone functionality.

 

For far too long mobile functionality has been a walled garden without
the ability to implement perfectly beneficial custom applications - I
think that this company might be able to offer us something interesting
and exciting.

 

Important point to note - I don't work for Savaje - I cant provide any
more information than I already have.

 

I will however be working on the Savaje stand for the 3 days of the
exhibition. I cant say who but I'm working with an as yet un-nameable
Savaje development partner. 

 

If you are visiting the show from Australia please feel free to come up
and say hi when you visit the Savaje stand. Hope to see you there.
