Symbian's prospects seem good, major mobile phone manufacturers are shareholders, strong combiners. Nokia, Sony Ericsson has used the Symbian platform on a variety of mobile phones, but it is said that Motorola 2003 does not push the Symbian platform mobile phone, but BenQ announces that the Symbian mobile phone in the third quarter of 2003. Domestic NOKIA7650 has occupied a considerable number of markets, 7650 is Symbianos, 7650 not only on behalf of the mobile phone into the color screen, MMS, GPRS era, more is a 7650 emergence makes the concept of mobile phones to a new step, because it is used Symbian operating system.
Symbian is a company founded and owned by Nokia, Motorola, Panasonic, Ericsson and PSI. The company's mission is to develop standards for mobile wireless operating systems and make wireless information equipment to market. The Symbian platform is one of the most exciting C programming systems so far, which uses EPOC's original software architecture developed by Psion. This type of operation of an object-oriented operating system fuses the various functions required for handheld devices, including power management functions integrated into the kernel, the tip storage management capability, event processing mechanism, and efficient multitasking capabilities. In order to effectively utilize these features, a set of APIs in the form of original C associated with this. In addition, the design of the system guarantees that different CPUs and hardware configurations can be applied. This move enables EPOC-based systems to integrate with multi-class products such as wireless information devices, laptop, and PCs.
Original Symbian can take a good market, but Microsoft is not willing to give up, so there will be a war of smoke! It is still Symbian to take the initiative! But now I can't see anything, the war has not yet started. But more optimistic is Symbian, because there is a number of Symbian mobile phones available on the market, the Nokia3650 is about to launch, and for the mid- market, there is a good business application prospect! However, the support of major mobile phone manufacturers, Symbian should still be very strong! Symbian's development first depends on the production of mobile phones, and it is also necessary to see wireless operators in all countries. At present, Symbian is not as good as Java, because Java has a mature market in Japan and South Korea, and now many people think that Symbian's advantage is that Open System is extremely powerful. In the future, I believe that most mobile phones will use this operating system.
Does Symbian and J2ME, do BREW competition? What is the relationship between them? For developers, Symbian, BREW is developed using C , and the pre-technical investment is very high, especially Symbian, and J2ME is "fast application development platform (tool) for several platforms. This developers can greatly reduce development costs, risks, and development cycles. This is also one of the main reasons why J2ME is adopted by the majority of developers, lovers, and the rapid application development platform has its existence value. It is relatively simple from now on the development of mobile applications. With the development of the industry, developers will inevitably develop more powerful applications, regardless of game or business applications. In fact, Symbian and J2ME are recommended in complementary relationships, J2ME is more suitable for entertainment, game, fast application development, Symbian can use its powerful function to do high-end applications.
