Java Application Providers Picking Up Momentum

Communications Today, Oct 18, 2002

Mobile entertainment application players gain momentum this week in deals with wireless carriers and infrastructure technology vendors and with the closing of a funding round. Digital Bridges and Tira Wireless are providing Java-enabled entertainment applications for AT&T Wireless Services' [AWE] mMode operation. London-based Digital Bridges also is integrating its Unity multitechnology entertainment platform and its portfolio of gaming titles, ringtones, icons and picture messages, celebrity voicemails and chat and dating applications with Openwave Systems' [OPWV] Mobile Browser and download technologies. Toronto-based Tira, which aggregates and publishes business and entertainment applications, also has closed its series A funding round with $3 million from Flagship Ventures and Brightspark Ventures.
