Ericsson's WAP browser to be  distributed  by AU-System 

Ericsson and AU-system today signed an exclusive international distribution agreement for Ericsson's WAP Browser, which-AU-System also has helped, develop. Ericsson recently announced that they will make their WAP 1.1 browser available at favorable conditions to device manufacturers, operators, applications developers and other WAP players.

The agreement that was signed today gives AU-System the exclusive right 
to distribute the WAP Browser used in Ericsson's mobile telephones and
terminals to other manufacturers worldwide. AU-System's offer also 
includes consultancy services for adaptation, e.g. for the user interface.
Ericsson's WAP Browser is the world's first commercially available WAP
component that meets all requirements in the WAP 1.1 specification. The
browser can be found in Ericsson's already released mobile companion MC 218, and in the recently presented mobile telephone R320. The focus for AU-System's involvement has been to assure the product's platform
independence. This openness combined with the distribution agreement 
now gives other suppliers access to world leading WAP technology.
"Today, Ericsson are providing WAP handsets, portals, management 
consultant, applications, developers and gateways," says Jan Ahrenbring, Vice President Marketing and Communications at Ericsson Mobile Communications. 

"Ericsson's started the WAP forum and is the main driving force behind the WAP specifications and the evolution to 3G compliance."
"A functioning infrastructure is required in order to deliver the full
potential of WAP. AU-System now offer service development as well as
components in order to further drive infrastructure construction," says
Anders Cedervall, president of AU-System.

The WAP business within AU-System already has 130 active consultants 
with more than 200-man year's experience. This competence has been built  since the forming of the WAP Forum in 1997.
